Once upon a time in the corn-speckled heartlands of Illinois, there existed a bustling tribe of high-spirited youngsters who were not just ordinary kids. They were cheerleaders, the energetic, cartwheeling champions of enthusiasm. Now these weren't your everyday cheerleaders; they were under the watchful supervision of none other than Flip-Flop McGee, a magical tumbleweed from Springfield. With a twang in his voice and a flip in his step, Flip-Flop McGee was a retired circus tumbleweed, who'd rolled into town one August afternoon. He had been part of the most daring acrobatic acts around the globe, but had settled in Illinois to coach these young cheerleaders. He had a belly full of giggles, a breeze of silliness, and an uncanny knack for turning frowns upside down. Under Flip-Flop's guidance, the cheerleading squad of Illinois consisted of boys and girls, short and tall, loud and quiet, all united by their love for spreading cheer. From the windy city of Chicago to the quaint little town of Naperville, these kids had a reputation for cartwheeling their way into people's hearts! They would vault through the air, tumble in the grass, and even somersault over the occasional cow - all while chanting motivating cheers that would make even the grumpiest corn stalk sway with joy. Be it at a basketball game or a corn-husking competition, the cheerleading squad of Illinois was always there, pompoms in hand, ready to cheer on their team. Under the twinkling Illinois sky, they danced, they joked, they laughed, and most importantly, they cheered. Because in the fantastic world of Flip-Flop McGee, cheerleading was so much more than just an activity; it was a lifestyle of fun, laughter, and energetic flips that kept the spirit of Illinois alive!

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.
