Meet Idaho, or as we like to call him, Mighty Ida. Mighty Ida is a supercool state shaped like a chunky, grizzly bear's paw, nestled in the wild west of the United States. He's notorious for having a rugged, cowboy spirit and a heart as vast as his sprawling landscape. With endless rivers snaking through his terrain like ribbons of blue, Mighty Ida is a boating and canoeing paradise. Now, let's dive into the wacky world of Idaho's kids, who are as adventurous as Mighty Ida himself. These little tykes are born with oars instead of rattle toys and learn to paddle before they can even walk! They're your ultimate boating and canoeing champions. They've got a secret superpower, you know. Lovey Dovey, a comical, friendly beaver, who is as much part of Idaho as Mighty Ida himself, endows the kids with this power. When the moon shines full and bright, Lovey Dovey surfs on the shimmering rivers, sprinkling magic drops of water on the children as they sleep. They wake up with an irresistible urge to canoe or boat! Every Idaho kid has a boat or a canoe that they call their own. Some even name their vessels after their favorite potato dishes, like "Spud Sailer" or "Tater Tot Tugboat." Can you imagine anything more Idaho than that? These water-loving Idahoan youngsters paddle their days away on the flowing rivers and placid lakes, laughing, splashing, and creating a ruckus so wild, it makes the mighty grizzly bear blush! So, if you ever find yourself in Mighty Ida's bear-paw grasp, do yourself a favor and hop into a canoe or boat with these superpowered kids for the ride of your life!

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.
