In the golden sunshine state of Florida, where oranges are as common as sunshine and alligators can be seen basking by the pool side, lives a group of extraordinary kids. They are not extraordinary because they can surf waves taller than a giraffe or eat more Key Lime Pie than a hungry hippo. No, these kids are special because they have an insatidably voracious appetite for… books! Introducing Captain BookBeard, the imaginary leader of these reading adventurers. He's a swashbuckling pirate with a wild beard made entirely of book pages, always fluttering in the tangy sea-breezes of Florida. You see, the more these Floridian kids read, the longer our Captain’s book beard grows, sometimes even tickling the pink flamingos that happen to pass by! Captain BookBeard guides this crew through the thrilling mysteries and magical realms found within the pages of their books. Each day after school, they gather under towering palm trees or sandy beaches, their eyes dancing across the pages, their minds transported to fabulously fantastical worlds. Whether they are reading about the daring escapades of superheroes, the enchanting tales of mermaids, or the brave adventures of astronauts, these kids never tire. The sunlight may dance on their suntanned faces, and the occasional splash of a dolphin may startle them, but nothing can deter these young bookworms. In the heart of Florida, with Captain BookBeard at the helm, these kids continue their reading journey. Their laughter and gasps of surprise ring out across the state, proving that in the land of sunshine and oranges, reading is as exciting as a rollercoaster ride through an alligator’s mouth! So, if you hear the rustling of pages in the breeze, you’ll know the Florida reading crew is on another epic adventure, led by their fearless leader, Captain BookBeard!

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.
