In the charmingly diverse state of Maryland, sandwiched between the sparkling Atlantic Ocean and the majestic Appalachian Mountains, there resides a quirky little creature named Shelly the Snail. Shelly has quite the penchant for arts and crafts. She's what you might call a "crafty critter" and she enjoys weaving her magical creativity all around the state. Maryland, a state fondly known as America in Miniature for its varied geography, is teeming with kids who share Shelly’s love for arts and crafts. From the sandy shores of Ocean City to the bustling streets of Baltimore, Shelly has seen them all, leaving a trail of glitter and color behind her. Kids from Maryland are special. They aren't merely kids who wield brushes and crayons. No, no, no! They are wizards and witches, armed with magical wands, who can, with a simple flick of their wrist, transform a blank page into a masterpiece. Their imaginations are as vast as the Chesapeake Bay, creating fantastical worlds out of clay, and constructing castles with popsicle sticks and glue. One day, you might see Shelly helping a young artist in Annapolis sculpt a crab out of clay, its pincers raised in salute. The next day, she might be in Bethesda, helping another crafty kid string together a necklace of colorful beads, as vibrant as a sunrise on Chesapeake Bay. Shelly and the kids of Maryland make quite the team. Despite their wildly different sizes, Shelly the Snail and these pint-sized Picassos create the most magical, vibrant and wacky art this side of the Mississippi. With paper, glue, and a sprinkling of imagination, they make Maryland the most colorful state of all!

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.
At Baltimore's Jewish Day Camp, we are dedicated to creating an unforgettable summer experience for every camper! We strive to push each and every child to their potential while maintaining a safe, fun, and healthy environment. Our creative and loving staff are committed to providing fun-filled days of adventure and excitement. We take pride in being part of the B'JDC family, and look forward to welcoming your child into our community!
