Maine, nicknamed the Pine Tree State, is a magical place where forests are so dense they perform impromptu shadow puppet shows, whales dance ballet in the deep, blue sea, and moose are known to host epic pie eating contests. This is a land where dreams are woven into the fabric of reality and the line between imagined and real is as blurry as a watercolor painting in the rain. In the heart of this woodland wonderland, there is a special group of kids who have opened a secret portal into the world of Art & Crafts. They are not just ordinary kids; they are the Art-Rangers of Maine! These kids have been endowed with superpowers to transform pine cones into intricate sculptures, seashells into beautiful jewelry, and fallen leaves into magnificent murals that tell stories of their adventures. Their leader is Doodle the Moose, a cheeky, chocolate brown moose with a paintbrush that grows straight out of his antlers. Doodle is not your usual moose; he can turn a mere scribble into a masterpiece with a single swoosh of his antler-brush. He's been known to paint the Northern Lights using just wild berries and sunrise hues using maple syrups. He wears a beret made from woven pine needles and an apron stitched together from soft fern leaves. These Art-Rangers and Doodle spend their days immersed in the enchanting world of Art & Crafts, creating, laughing, and transforming the ordinary into extraordinary. They share a secret not everyone knows: in Maine, the world is your canvas, and imagination is the most powerful paintbrush.

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.
