In the hilly heartland of North Carolina, where the Appalachian Mountains scratch the sky and rivers carve through the landscape like a spoon through a bowl of grandma's famous pudding, a special group of kids have discovered a magical adventure on two wheels. These aren't your ordinary kids, no way Jose! They are the Bold Bikers of NC! Our story begins in the twinkling town of Asheville, where our hero, Bubblegum Billy, resides. Now, Bubblegum Billy wasn't your typical boy. Oh, he looked normal enough with his freckled face and curly mop of hair. But the moment he hopped onto his neon-colored mountain bike, a transformation occurred. His eyes would sparkle brighter than a firefly's behind, his smile as wide as the Mississippi. Bubblegum Billy and his gang of bold bikers would explore every nook and cranny of North Carolina. They would pedal like mad through the Smoky Mountain trails, their laughs echoing through the trees. Downhill, they whipped past waterfalls, their wheels a blur of color in the sun. They challenged each other with daredevil stunts at the Outer Banks, their bicycles flying over the sand dunes like wild stallions. These Bold Bikers weren't just swift cyclists. They were also nature detectives, history explorers, and wildlife guardians. They would stop to observe fuzzy caterpillars or marvel at hidden caves, always careful to leave no trace behind. North Carolina was their playground, their classroom, their home. And every day, with the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces, these brave bikers would embark on another two-wheeled adventure, pedaling their way through the pages of their own exciting story.

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 Quaker Lake, we believe that time spent outdoors can help forge a closer relationship with God. We provide a safe and friendly environment for campers to make lasting memories, and to learn about the outdoors. We strive to create a sense of community and Christian fellowship, and to foster individual growth. Our campers will have the opportunity to develop positive self-image, courage and a strengthened faith. At Quaker Lake, we aim to give all our campers an enjoyable and rewarding experience. We offer activities designed to help our campers connect with nature and build important friendships. We are dedicated to helping children become confident and independent individuals, and to providing a fun atmosphere. We also believe that being in a safe and supportive environment encourages our campers to take risks and build a strong sense of self-worth. Finally, we aim to motivate our campers to approach the future with courage and a strengthened faith. We use activities and events to help our campers build their own faith in God, as well as to build a strong foundation of self-confidence. We want to ensure that our campers leave Quaker Lake with a positive outlook and a lasting sense of community.
