Hidden in the heartland of America, lies the magical state of Iowa. Shaped like a puzzle piece that perfectly fits in the middle of the country, this enchanting land is filled with cornfields that sway like ocean waves, and cities that twinkle brighter than the stars. Iowa might seem sleepy, but don't be fooled, because it dances to a rhythm of its own. You see, in Iowa, children don't just walk, they boogie. You wouldn't see them merely skipping to school, but twirling and leaping with the joy of a thousand sunflowers. They are the dance warriors of the Midwest, moving to a beat that only they can hear. Leading this troupe of dance warriors is a whimsical character named Twinkle Toes Terry. Terry has feet that glow every time he busts a move and a laugh that sounds like popcorn popping. He was born during a tornado, and some say that's why he spins so fast. One day, he tumbled out of the cyclone and landed in the middle of a barn dance. From that day forward, Terry knew he was meant to dance. He taught every kid in Iowa how to moonwalk across cornfields, pirouette on the school buses, and do the sprinkler at the grocery store. Iowa isn't just a state, it's a stage, and every child is part of the performance. So, next time you see a map of the United States, find the puzzle piece in the middle. That's Iowa, the dancing heartland of America, and remember, if you ever visit, be ready to bust a move with Twinkle Toes Terry and his merry band of dancing kids!

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.
At Camp Albrecht Acres, we’ve been providing a unique camping experience for people with special needs since 1975. We’ve grown from a small operation of tent camping to a 40-acre residential camp that serves more than 600 campers each summer. Campers are able to enjoy time in the pool, create art in our arts and crafts section, explore nature in our Beidler Nature Center, and take part in weekly dances. Each activity is adapted to their individual needs and abilities, so everyone is able to participate. We are grateful for the generous support we receive from our community, who understand the importance of recreational services for our population of people with special needs. We thank you for your support, service, and financial contributions, which make the Camp Albrecht Acres experience possible.
