Once upon a time, in the splendid, sun-kissed state of Alabama (or AL, as our cool imaginary character, Buzzy the Bumblebee likes to call it), there lived an energetic group of kids with a shared passion for everything nature. AL is a wonderland of lush forests, meandering rivers, and towering mountains, with a sky so blue, it makes Buzzy think someone spilled a giant bucket of blueberry ice cream on it! Now, these kids were not your ordinary youngsters. Oh no! They were daring explorers, brave adventurers, and nature detectives. They could talk to birds, decipher squirrel chatter, and even knew how to placate a grumpy old tortoise named Terrence. And they loved nothing more than to dash outdoors every morning to meet their best buddy, Buzzy. Each day, Buzzy, with his bright yellow and black stripes and wings that buzzed like a mini helicopter, would lead the kids on a wild adventure. Marvelling at the dexterity of the spiders spinning their intricate webs, they'd chuckle as Buzzy tried to spin his own web, ending up in a tangle of silk and laughter. They would trek up the majestic Appalachian Mountains, panting and giggling, with Buzzy often mistaking pine cones for weird, brown flowers. At the end of each day, tired but thrilled, they would lay under the star-studded AL sky, listening to Buzzy’s absurdly funny tales about his chats with a posh-sounding porcupine or a bashful beetle. Their laughter would echo across the valley, mingling with the melodious night sounds. Buzzy and the kids of AL, through their fun-filled nature adventures, truly knew the heartbeat of the earth. They show us that every day can be an exciting journey, where all you need is a curious mind and a buzzing companion!

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.
