In the sunny state of California, where palm trees sway alongside skyscrapers, a bunch of cool kids defy the odds by playing a sport that's normally played in frosty temperatures. Yes, you heard it right! They play hockey! Not on the icy lakes or freezing ponds, but in massive, air-conditioned arenas that sparkle like a giant popsicle under the golden Californian sun. Our tale follows the journey of the "Ice Surfers," a team of fun-loving hockey kids, with their leader, Zippy the Zamboni. Now, Zippy is no ordinary Zamboni. With his bright, shiny paint job that glistens like a rainbow, and his googly eyes that blink with mischief, Zippy not only keeps the rink smooth but also keeps the spirits high. The Ice Surfers, wearing their team jerseys of brilliant oranges and blues that outshine even the most radiant California sunset, zoom across the rink with Zippy leading the charge. With every swish of their sticks and every slide on the ice, they create waves of laughter and joy. They compete, not for trophies or medals, but for the sheer thrill of skating, shooting, and scoring, all while cracking jokes and sharing high-fives. So, in the land where surfing and skating take center stage, these puck-chasing, joke-cracking, and Zamboni-loving kids have carved out their own cool corner. With their hockey sticks raised high and their laughter filling the air, they've made the icy sport sizzle under the Californian sun. They are the Ice Surfers, riding the waves of fun in their own frosty paradise.

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.
