Once upon a time, in the magically mechanical world of Michigan, nestled between the shimmering Great Lakes and the towering skyscrapers of Detroit, lived a group of ingenious kids known as the 'Robo-Rascals'. Much like the ever-changing seasons of Michigan, these kids were full of surprises, buzzing with ideas as vibrant as the autumn leaves and as fresh as the winter snow. Among them was our peculiar protagonist, Gadget Gizmo, a quirky kid with curly hair, who wore glasses large enough to be mistaken for a pair of satellite dishes. He was as famous for his mischievous grin as he was for his genius in Robotics. Gadget's creations could often be seen whizzing around, faster than the famous Michigan Wolverines on a touchdown run. The Robo-Rascals, led by Gadget, zipped around Michigan, from the cherry orchards of Traverse City to the historical lighthouses of Mackinac Island, exploring the state's beauty while honing their robotics skills. They turned old car parts into mischievous machines and even used Michigan's famous Mackinac fudge to grease the gears of their inventions. In this peculiar world of Michigan, they celebrated the 'Robotics Day', where the Robo-Rascals showcased their robots, parading them along the streets of Lansing, the state capital. It was a sight to behold, as robots danced, sang, and even did summersaults, making even the sternest of adults chuckle. These kids were not just whiz-kids who could make their robots somersault and pirouette, but they were also the heartbeats of Michigan, beating all year round in the rhythm of creativity and innovation. They were the magical essence of Michigan, a testament to its spirit of imagination and invention.

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 tinkrLAB™, we invite parents and their children to join us on a journey of exploration and self-discovery! No matter what their background or knowledge level, there is something for everyone to learn. We strongly encourage originality and creativity, and our programs provide the freedom to explore and experiment. With tinkrLAB™, the focus is on the process, rather than perfection. The tinkrLAB™ experience provides a safe space for children to express themselves and unlock their imaginations. Through these experiences, children can learn to think outside the box and develop the skills needed for the jobs of tomorrow. It’s a chance to celebrate the process as they take the first steps toward their future success.
