In the splendid, corn-covered state of Illinois, where skyscrapers mix with towering oaks and rivers flow with a lazy elegance, a league of extraordinary kids has made its mark. The Karate Kids of Illinois, they're known as! This isn't just any group of cotton-candy munching, video-game-playing youngsters. No siree! These are the Karate Kids - a force to be reckoned with! Now, picture this: a round, squishy, tomato-like character named Master Ketchup. He's an eccentric, exuberant, and somewhat clumsy martial arts master who's obsessed with his beloved tomato garden. He's constantly battling the mischievous squirrels attempting to feast on his red, juicy treasures. This quirky master has a knack for creating the most hilarious, flying, spinning karate moves you've ever seen. He serves as their coach, instructor, and most importantly, comic relief. The Karate Kids aren't just about high kicks, punches, and spins. They’re also great at the art of giggling – whether it's at Master Ketchup's silly tomato-themed moves, like the ‘Ripe Tomato Roundhouse’ or his uproarious attempts to protect his garden. Together they learn about discipline, respect, and bravery in an atmosphere filled with laughter, ketchup splatters and an occasional squirrel chase. Just imagine, each day, these karate-kicking kids pour in from all over the state - from the bustling, pizza-scented streets of Chicago to the quaint, tranquil towns along the Mississippi River. They're the prairie ninjas, the land of Lincoln's defenders, and above all, the admirers of the wacky, tomato-loving Master Ketchup. So, prepare yourself, Illinois, for the dawn of the Karate Kids era!

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.
