In the grand, sun-soaked state of Florida, where oranges grow as large as basketballs and alligators are as friendly as puppies (well, not really, but let's just imagine it for fun!), a troupe of young adventurers, known as the Sunshine Hike-Heads, embark on their daily exploration. The Sunshine state, as everyone calls it, is a paradise brimming with palms that dance in the warm breeze, sparkling beaches that stretch on forever, and forests that seem to whisper tales from ancient times. Hiking here is nothing short of a page right out of an exciting adventure book! Now, let's meet our hike-heads, shall we? There's fearless Freddie, the leader of the pack with a laugh that can scare off a bear (if there were any in Florida!). He can spot a turtle from a mile away. Then, there's curious Cathy, with eyes as wide as the Florida sky, always on the lookout for rainbow-feathered birds or magical flowers. And don’t forget about the mischievous twins, Billy and Bobby, with their never-ending bag of pranks. They once convinced everyone that they'd found Bigfoot's footprint, but it was just a large coconut! These young explorers, with their ever muddy boots and sun-tinged cheeks, know every nook and cranny of their beloved Florida. They chase butterflies through citrus groves, climb the tallest trees in mangrove forests, and even play hide and seek with the friendly dolphins near the coast. The Sunshine Hike-Heads and the enchanting land of Florida - an unbeatable team in the world of wild, childlike adventure. So, slip on your imaginary hiking boots, grab your explorer hat, and join in the fun. The Sunshine Hike-Heads are always ready for a new friend on their journeys!

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.
