Once upon a time, in the enchanting state of Arkansas, a land known for its thunderous waterfalls, lush forests, and mysterious caves, lived a bunch of mischievous kids. Their hearts were as warm as the southern sunshine and their minds as colorful as the breathtaking Arkansas sunsets. These were the children of the Visual Arts Club. Each kid possessed a unique power - the magical ability to transform blank canvases into masterpieces! They were like little wizards, their paintbrushes were their wands, and the colors were their spells. Their leader, a cool imaginary character, was a jolly old raccoon named Artie. Artie wore a rainbow-colored beret, had a paintbrush always tucked neatly behind his ear, and a twinkle in his eyes that screamed mischief! Artie was a master prankster; he loved to mix up the paints when no one was looking. Blue turned to green, red into purple, causing endless chuckles and gasps. Still, every time the kids found their paints switched, they made the best out of it, creating artworks that left everyone spellbound. Artie and the kids would huddle under the grand old oak, their fingers dancing over the canvases, creating magic as the sun dipped below the horizon. The kids of the Visual Arts Club, with their bright smiles and limitless imaginations, were the true weavers of colors in the heart of Arkansas. Their spirits were infectious, their laughter ringing through the forests, over the rivers, and into the heart of the state. Together, they painted a picture of Arkansas that was as vibrant and spectacular as their incredible masterpieces.

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.
