In the wild and whimsical world of Wisconsin, a state known for its cheese, lakes, and chilly winters, exists a group of extraordinary kids, as unique and bubbly as a block of Swiss cheese. Meet the Target Sports Team of Wisconsin, a band of fearless, fun-loving children who spend their days launching arrows, firing pellets, and throwing darts. Shaped by the state's natural beauty, these kids are as sharp and aim-ready as the majestic bald eagles soaring above the state’s dense forests. Leading them on their adventurous pursuits is Captain Cheesehead, a cool imaginary character with a cheese wedge for a head, bearing the state colors of blue and gold. The Captain's eyes twinkle like the stars over Lake Superior, and his laughter echoes across the cornfields, louder than a pack of Wisconsin Badgers at a football game. Captain Cheesehead guides the Target Sports Team, teaching them to aim with precision, just like the Green Bay Packers throwing a football. The kids on the team are swift as the deer roaming the lush Wisconsin fields, as determined as the state's farmers tending to their crops. Yet, they're not all business; these kids are as playful as the otters sliding down snowy riverbanks, turning every sporting event into a festival of fun. During the chilly Wisconsin winters, they're not huddled up at home. No, sir! They're out in the snow, their laughter ringing through the frosty air, as they partake in snowball target practice, turning the icy challenge into a joyous jamboree. The story of Wisconsin and the Target Sports kids is a tale of resilience, fun, and a community bound by the love for their state and an adventurous sport.

For over 50 years, Frontier Camp has been dedicated to making disciples of Jesus by sharing God’s Word amidst the beauty of His creation. Since our founding in 1969, we’ve been licensed by the Texas Department of State Health Services and are proudly accredited by the American Camping Association. We’re also a member of the Christian Camping and Conference Association. Our mission is to use Christian camping and outdoor recreation as a means to support local churches in fulfilling the Great Commission—evangelizing people of all ages and discipling believers toward deeper maturity in Christ. Frontier Camp offers a dual ministry: during the summer, we host a 10-week youth camp, and throughout the rest of the year, we serve as a retreat facility for churches and like-minded religious organizations. Whether through summer camps or retreats, our goal remains the same: to expose people to Christ and encourage their spiritual growth through His Word and by reflecting His character in everything we do. While we provide top-notch recreation and exciting programming, the heart of our camp is the spiritual impact, rooted in the truth of God’s inerrant Word.
