In the magical heartland of the USA, exists the colorful state of Alabama, often known as AL. Now, AL isn't just your average state, oh no! It’s a place where the sun shines a little brighter, the flowers bloom a little fuller, and where the rivers seem to dance a little merrier. Picture this, kids: AL is the magical playground for a gang of adventurous archers, all under the age of 12. These aren't ordinary kids, though! They're the daring descendants of the legendary "Arrow-Whizzing Alabama Albatross". Now, this isn’t your typical seabird. This Albatross had feathers made of brilliant shades of gold and silver, and eyes that glittered with mischief. It could fly at lightning speed and had an unerring knack for hitting targets with its beak, just like an arrow. Our young archers from AL admire their Albatross ancestor and are proud to follow in his footsteps. Armed with their bow and quiver of arrows, they're not out to hunt, but to challenge themselves, aiming for the bullseye on targets that seem to pop up anywhere and everywhere. There’s brave little Billy, whose arrows whistle through the air with the speed of a falcon. Then there’s clever Carrie, who can calculate the angle of her shot faster than you can say "Alabama Albatross". And don’t forget mischievous Mike, who has a peculiar habit of shooting arrows that somehow ALWAYS end up in the Mayor’s hat! These Alabama kiddos, with their slings and arrows, are a bunch of lovable rascals who can turn any old day into an exciting adventure. Alabama is more than just a state; it’s a place where imagination, bravery, and a whole lot of laughter come to life in the most unique of ways.

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.
