California, the golden state, where the sun shines brighter than a firefly's behind, and the waves dance like jiggly jellyfish on hot sand! Here, kids are not just kids; they're mini-explorers, tiny inventors, and pint-sized pioneers! They sport sunglasses so big, they could eclipse the moon and wear flip flops that flippity-flop louder than a seagull stealing a hotdog! In the heart of this sunny paradise, there's a special gang of kids, known as the 'Mud Masters.' Oh, they're not what you're thinking — they don’t wrestle with hogs or play in the rain. No, they’re far more cultured, shaping and moulding the earth itself as they dive hands-first into the wonderfully messy world of pottery! Under the watchful one-eyed gaze of their guide, Captain Claybeard, a jolly pirate with a beard as tough as baked clay, they squish, squelch, and squash their way to artistic glory. They create things so beautiful, you'd think they were whispered into their ears by the pottery pixies in their sleep. Their hands, covered in mud, look like five-legged octopuses having a field day. What’s that? You thought pottery was quiet and refined? Ha! Not with the Mud Masters. Amidst the whirl of the pottery wheel and the squelch of the clay, there’s more laughter here than a hyena’s comedy night. They make pots, plates, and even the occasional pirate parrot for Captain Claybeard. So, welcome to California, where the sun is hot, the surf is up, and you can mold your dreams, one hilarious, clay-splattered pottery class at a time.

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.
