Once upon a time, in the peachy heart of the United States, sat a lively state known as Georgia. It was a marvelous mix of bustling cities, charming countryside, and sticky swamps, all topped with a dollop of sweet southern hospitality. Georgia was famous for its juicy peaches, melodious music, and a wacky, wonderful creature named Thespian Thad. Thespian Thad was a whimsical character, who wore plaid overalls, a top hat full of tricks, and had a laugh as infectious as the common cold. He had a special knack for drama and was the unofficial ambassador of all the bright-eyed, bushy-tailed children involved in theater in Georgia. These kids weren't your regular Joe's and Jill's, oh no! They were a bunch of audacious little dramatists, who could twist their faces into a thousand different expressions, gesticulate wildly, and conjure up emotions as easily as Thespian Thad could pull rabbits out of his hat. Their dreams were as big as the Georgian sky and they could turn any drab day into a lively Broadway musical. Whether they were reciting Shakespeare in Savannah, pantomiming in Peachtree City, or conducting improv in Atlanta, these kids lit up the stage with their passion and talent, backed by the encouraging chuckles and endless cheer of Thespian Thad. The kids called themselves 'Thad's Thespians', after their beloved mascot. Each day was a fantastic drama-filled adventure in Georgia, filled with laughter, tears, cheers, and a whole lot of charm. Thespian Thad and the young thespians continued to weave their magic, proving that the world indeed was their stage, and boy, did they know how to perform!

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.
