In the playful land of Arkansas, commonly known as AR, you'll find kids with a unique kind of sparkle in their eyes. They are the adventurous Arkansas Archers, a group of brave children who possess a passion for archery. You might think that AR is just about its mighty Mississippi, sprawling forests, and magnificent mountains, but that's not the whole story. AR is also the kingdom of kids wielding bows and arrows with the precision of young Robin Hoods. Meet our charismatic character, Billy Bob the Bow-Bender. Billy Bob is an Arkansas Archer with a belly laugh that echoes through the Ozark Mountains and a smile as broad as the Arkansas River. He’s got freckles scattered across his cheeks like constellations and a wild mop of hair, the color of autumn leaves. Billy Bob's got a special skill, an uncanny knack for bending his bow just right to hit the bullseye every single time. But Billy Bob is not just about bullseyes. He's also the kingdom's biggest prankster. Often, he replaces the regular archery targets with watermelons or even scarecrows wearing his grandma's old dresses. The sight of arrows stuck in the watermelons or the dress-clad scarecrows sends the archers into fits of laughter, their chuckles bouncing off the trees and ringing through the air. So, Arkansas isn't just about its natural beauty. It's also about the spirited children who bring the state to life with their archery antics. Their laughter, camaraderie, and shared love for archery makes AR a truly special place. Billy Bob and the Arkansas Archers make sure of that. You can bet your last arrow on it!

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.
