Welcome to the splendid state of Massachusetts, often referred to by its nickname - "the Bay State." Now, you may picture this place as a land of bustling cities and top-notch universities, but it's also a paradise for kids who love to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty in the delightful realm of farming! You see, Massachusetts is a magical place where the pumpkins are plumper, apples are crispier and the corn stalks grow taller than the most monstrous giants! And the kids here? They're no ordinary youngsters. They are the "Muddy Boot Brigade," led by their delightfully quirky leader, Captain Corn Cob. Captain Corn Cob, a scarecrow with twinkling button eyes and a corn husk mustache, takes his job quite seriously. Armed with a rake for a sword and a tractor for his trusty steed, he trains his brigade in the secret art of farming. These kids can plant a seed faster than you can say "squash," and they are known for talking in 'veggie vernacular,' using words like 'spudtacular' or 'berry good.' In this wacky world, the kids compete to grow the biggest tomato and race on speedy wheelbarrows, leaving clouds of dust and peals of laughter in their wake. They have mud pie bake-offs and create scarecrows that could make a potato laugh! So, if you're a fan of fun, farming, and a bit of fabulous madness, then pack your boots, grab your sunhat, and join Captain Corn Cob and the Muddy Boot Brigade in the exciting farm fields of Massachusetts!

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.
