In the magical state of Indiana, also known as the Land of the Indians, thousands of bright-eyed, bushy-tailed kids engage in the most splashtacular water activities. This isn't your typical rubber-duckie-in-a-bathtub kind of fun, oh no! These Indiana water warriors are fierce, adventurous, and ready for a splashdown! Now, meet our imaginary friend, Willy the Water Walrus. He's a robust, grey walrus with a big heart and an even bigger moustache, who wears a funky, neon-colored snorkel and loves everything about water. He's quite the spectacle; you might even say he's the unofficial mascot for Hoosier water hijinks! Every morning, Willy wakes up bright and early, polishes his tusks, fluffs up his whiskers, puts on his snorkel, and sets off to join the kids. Sometimes, they're at the Jellystone Park splish-splashing in the Yogi Bear's Water Zone. Other times, they're at the Deep River Waterpark, whooshing down the Dragon Speed Slide with yelps of joy and laughter hanging in the air. These Hoosier kids are water babies. They swim like little mermaids and mermen, surf like they're on the beaches of Hawaii, and dive like they're hunting for lost pirate treasure. But most importantly, they giggle, cheer, and create unforgettable memories under the watchful, twinkling eyes of Willy the Water Walrus. Whether it's a water balloon fight in the backyard, a diving competition in the community pool, or a wild ride on the Indiana Beach Boardwalk Resort's water slide, water fun in Indiana, according to Willy, is the wettest, wildest, and wackiest! So, grab your goggles and dive in; an aqua adventure with Indiana's water-loving kids and a walrus named Willy is waiting!

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.
