Once upon a time in the magical state of AR, also known as Arkansas, there was a group of kids. Now, these weren't your ordinary kids. No, sir, these kids were nature-loving, outdoor-adventuring, wild-hearted whizz-kids. With a love for all things green and a thirst for exploring every nook and cranny of their beautiful state, they would set out every day on adventures that would make even the bravest adventurers go "WOW!" Arkansas was their playground, a place filled with mountains, hot springs, and rivers. It had caves to explore, forests to hide in, and the most beautiful sunsets you could ever imagine. There were acres and acres of beautiful wildflowers, and the hummingbirds and butterflies could make even the gloomiest day shine like a rainbow. In the middle of this group was their leader, a quirky, imaginative character known as Captain Greenbeard. Don’t let the name fool you though, for he was just a kid like them, but with a beard made of leaves, vines, and the occasional bird's nest. With binoculars made from acorns and a compass drawn on a tree bark, Captain Greenbeard was always ready to lead the group on their next adventure. "Oh, look! A squirrel! No, wait, it's a chipmunk! Oh, who cares, let's follow it!" He would often say, leading them through a wild chase or challenging them to a game of ‘Find the Elusive Pink Snorp', a creature they had imaginatively conjured up, which supposedly had the body of a snail, the horns of a rhino and the wings of a parrot. These adventures in nature were the highlight of their days, each one a new story, a new discovery, and a whole lot of laughs. Something was always happening in the wonderful world of Arkansas, and these kids wouldn't have it any other way!

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.
