In the enchanting state of North Carolina, where the mountains kiss the sky and the beaches whisper to the sea, a unique tribe of courageous kids resides. These aren't your average, everyday kids, oh no! They're the fearless warriors of the wrestling world, training with the vigor of a thousand hurricanes and the focus of a hawk on the hunt. The world fondly knows them as the Tar Heel Tumblers. Their leader, a jolly giant named "Giggling Gator Gary," is a former alligator wrestler with muscles as hard as the Appalachian rocks and a heart as soft as the Carolina cotton. He leads his troop with a hearty laughter that echoes across the valleys and a gentle wisdom that flows like the Cape Fear River. These Tar Heel Tumblers start their day not with a yawn, but with a "Yee-haw!" They don't do push-ups; they push the earth down! Their breakfast? A bowl full of grits and a side of determination. They tie their shoelaces into a double Windsor knot, because they've got style, and they hit the wrestling mat with dreams as big as the Blue Ridge Parkway. Their bouts are legendary! It's like watching popcorn kernels wrestling in a hot pan, popping all over the place with excitement. And when they tumble, they roll with the grace of a biscuit rolling down a buttered skillet, then spring back up like a jack-in-the-box on a sugar rush. These Tar Heel Tumblers are the pride of North Carolina, proving to the world that wrestling isn't just a sport; it's a dance, a craft, a wild, wonderful whirl of hilarity and heart.

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.
