In the heart of the United States, nestled between the mighty Mississippi River and the shimmering Lake Michigan, lies a land of towering skyscrapers, lush cornfields, and warm-hearted people, aptly named Illinois. This magical land is inhabited not only by humans but by a jolly, charming character known as Putter Pete. With his neon green golf ball nose and putter for an arm, Putter Pete is a legend amongst the young Illinoisians. You see, Putter Pete is a whizz at mini golf, which just so happens to be the favorite pastime of the spirited kids of Illinois. These boys and girls aren't just any ordinary mini golf players, oh no! They are the champions of chutzpah, the masters of mirth, and the wizards of the windmill hole. Their enthusiasm and skill in the game have earned them a special place in Putter Pete's heart. He zips around the mini golf courses, teaching them tricks, sharing funny stories, and occasionally getting stuck in sand traps. Laughter echoes around as Pete pops up from the most unexpected places, his shiny golf ball nose glistening in the sunshine. These Illinoisians kids show the world that mini golf isn't just a game; it's an adventure. An adventure filled with astonishing holes-in-one, hilarious mishaps, and the sheer joy of spending time with friends and a funny, golf-ball-nosed friend. So, whether they are at the southernmost tip of Cairo or under the shadow of Chicago's towering giants, you'll find the kids of Illinois, putters in hand, ready for another round of fun with Putter Pete.

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.
