Georgia, known as the "Peach State," is a magical land that radiates warmth from its golden sun, cloaked in a blanket of dense forests and cotton fields, and crisscrossed by rivers acting as liquid silk ribbons. But what truly fuels the spirit of Georgia is its rhythm, a melody that permeates every corner of the state, from the chirping cicadas to the rustling magnolia leaves, and of course, the lively kids who are the real maestros of this orchestra. Meet Groovy Gus, a fun-loving, guitar-strumming, harmonica-huffing raccoon who's the ringleader of this musical adventure. Gus has a knack for tickling the ivories of a piano as well as plucking the strings of a banjo. His thick fur, fluffy tail, and ever-present shades make him the coolest critter in Georgia. Gus loves nothing more than to spend his days with the kids of Georgia who have a shared passion for music. These young Georgians, armed with their instruments and radiant smiles, are eager to make their own musical contributions. They are the flutists, the drummers, the singers, the guitarists who create a symphony that echoes through the hills and valleys of their beloved state. These kids are a riot. They can make a guitar wail like a lovesick coyote or a drum pound like a thunderstorm. They can blow a trumpet to mimic the morning rooster's crow or strum a ukulele to match the soft whisper of the evening wind. Their laughter and camaraderie are as infectious as their foot-tapping tunes. So, come along and join Groovy Gus and the talented Georgia kids on their musical journey. They'll have you laugh like a loon, sing like a lark, and dance like no one's watching!

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.
The Board of Directors of the Georgia Lions Camp have a clear mission: to give a unique recreational experience to the visually impaired of Georgia and the surrounding states. This mission was entrusted to them by the State of Georgia in 1975, when they were granted use of the property in Waycross. The Board of Directors have taken this mission seriously and use the property for the benefit of the visually impaired community. At other times of the year, the Georgia Lions Camp's properties are used in a way that directly or indirectly serves the visually impaired and helps to support the primary mission of recreational opportunities. The Board of Directors of the Georgia Lions Camp work hard to ensure that the property entrusted to them is used to its fullest potential. Their mission is to provide a unique recreational experience to the visually impaired of Georgia and the surrounding states, which they do by using the property for other purposes that support their primary mission.
