Deep in the heart of the Hawkeye State, better known as Iowa, lies a magical archery ground, where kids from all corners come to partake in the noble sport of archery. Imagine a place where cornfields give way to archery ranges, and scarecrows are replaced with colorful archery targets. You'd think Hawkeyes would rule the roost, but no! The real sheriffs in town are none other than kids, armed with bows and arrows, and a twinkle in their eyes that screams, "Challenge Accepted!" Leading the pack is our hero, Archibald the Archer. Now Archibald, or Archie as he is affectionately known, isn't your ordinary pint-sized Hawkeye. Nope! He's a walking-talking archery encyclopedia with a remarkable knack for hitting bullseyes blindfolded. They say he once shot an arrow that soared high above the Iowan skyline, over the Mississippi River, and landed smack on a donut someone was eating in Illinois. Of course, that could be a tall tale, but with Archie, you never know! In the land of Iowa, archery isn't just a sport; it's a way of life. The kids here love to hear the “thwack” sound when arrow meets target, a sound more delightful to their ears than the ice-cream truck. These sharpshooting prodigies, under the expert tutelage of Archie, brave the unpredictable Iowan weather, be it the blistering summers or the nose-numbing winters, always showing up to the archery ground with a bow in hand and a dream in their hearts. Whether it's the friendly neighboring competitions or the prestigious annual state tournaments, the children of Iowa, led by the legendary Archie, are always ready to let their arrows fly. Their motto? 'You miss 100% of the shots you don't take', and in Iowa, no shot is left untaken!

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.
We at Camp Lookout are counting down the days until the 2022 camping season officially begins! As we make the necessary preparations for this exciting summer, we invite all campers to join us in the adventure. We will not be requiring masks, so campers should be sure to bring their unique personalities and a willingness to participate. With a spirit of adventure, a sense of service to others, and a few laughs, we are sure it will be a summer to remember!
