Billy Blibberblob, the most fantastically talented blob from the magical land of Artville, was on a mission. His squishy blue boots had just landed in a place called New Hampshire, a tiny but mighty state in the USA. Just a little larger than his favorite blueberry pie, New Hampshire is known for its lofty mountains, serene forests, and beautiful beaches, but most of all, for its kids who are exceptionally good at one very special thing - Visual Arts! The children of New Hampshire are not your regular art-loving kids. Oh no, they are incredibly talented with a dash of quirk! They paint, they sculpt, they sketch, and oh boy, they create art that could make the sun wear sunglasses! There's little Susie, who paints such vivid sunsets that they light up her room at night. And then there's Tommy, who can sculpt dragons so real, they seem to breathe fire. Billy Blibberblob, with his round googly eyes, couldn’t believe the creativity that overflowed from these New Hampshire kids. Their schools, parks, homes, and even cafes, were adorned with their captivating pieces of art. Billy, who was himself a prodigy at the wibber-wobble art form, was truly impressed. He decided to call New Hampshire the 'Art Heart' of the States, where every child was born with a paintbrush in one hand and a palette of imagination in the other. As he hopped back to Artville, he couldn’t shake off the inspiration he had gathered from the kids of NH. And so, the tales of the 'Art Heart' spread far and wide, putting New Hampshire and its extraordinary little artists on the fantastical map of Artville!

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 Derryfest, our booth is always full of fun activities and our performers never miss the opportunity to show their moves. Plus, we take part in Trick-or-Treat on Main Streets, the Derry Holiday Parade, and every May, we join a bus and travel to Nursing Homes and Assisted Livings for our annual "Day of Giving". But our commitment to our community extends beyond the occasional event. Every holiday season, our studio community "adopts" a family in need, and provides presents and all the fixings to make their holiday truly special. We also collect cards for our Veterans, and have visited Camp Allen in Bedford to share our love of dance with campers. It's all part of our mission to spread joy throughout the community.
