In the delightful state of Maine, known lovingly as ME by all who call it home, adventure awaits around every corner. This place is a wonderland of tall trees, majestic mountaintops, and sparkling ocean views. Now imagine being a kid in ME, where every day is a chance for a new quest, with the best one of all being zip-lining! Among the group of thrill-seekers in ME were some of the coolest kids you'd ever meet. They were known as the "Zippy Zip-liners". Leading the crew was a boy with freckles as plentiful as the stars, named Sammy Swoosh. Sammy had curly hair that was forever being tousled by the wind as he zipped through the air like an untamed hawk. His laughter could be heard echoing through the forest, making the squirrels chitter in response. Then there was Molly "Mighty Grip" who was famous for holding onto the zip-line so tightly that her knuckles turned as white as marshmallows. She might have been a bit scared at times, but she was also the bravest of them all. And you could always spot Billy "Backwards" - the daring lad who, unbelievably, zipped down the lines backwards, his untied shoelaces always fluttering behind him like two unruly flags. Oh, the adventures these young Mainers had! They zipped over the tops of pine trees, they dared the winds on the highest peaks, and they discovered secret paths in the woods. They became the legends of ME, showing everyone that dreams take flight when you're brave enough to zip-line through the sky!

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.
