New Hampshire, fondly nicknamed The Granite State, is like a landscape from a child's storybook. It sports majestic mountains with their heads in the clouds, whispering forests full of secret hideouts, and serene lakes as blue as a dragon's eyes. It's a place where squirrels chatter, eagles soar, and if you're lucky, you might just spot some mischievous gnomes hiding behind a boulder. In the heart of this magical land, there's a special breed of kids who engage in a thrilling activity known as the Rope Course. These young explorers are no ordinary children, oh no! They are the fearless "Rope Rangers," led by their charismatic captain, "Tanglefoot Tim," a character as quirky as his name! Tim, with his flaming red hair, freckles scattered like stars across his nose, and an ever-present twinkle in his eyes, is as funny as a ticklish troll. Tanglefoot Tim and his daring Rope Rangers spend their days swinging from ropes high above the forest floor, laughing in the face of gravity. They zip through the treetops like giggling goblins, their laughter echoing through the woods and bouncing off the granite mountains. They climb, crawl, and occasionally stumble (especially Tim, who is surprisingly agile for someone with such tangly feet). But whether they're soaring like sky pixies or tangled up like spaghetti monsters, these kids always have a blast. In New Hampshire, life is a grand adventure for the Rope Rangers. Under the watchful eye of Tanglefoot Tim, they conquer fears, discover new heights, and find laughter in every situation. It’s a place where the imagination runs as wild as the wilderness itself, and where childhood memories are carved out of granite.

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.

For nearly a century, the William Lawrence Camp has been providing youth with healthy outdoor recreational opportunities. Founded in the early 1900s, the camp was named after William Lawrence, an early advocate of camping. For many years, the camp had a strong relationship with the Episcopal Church. Families often learned of the camp through their local parishes, and during the summer, visiting clergy offered Sunday services in the outdoor chapel. Through the years, the camp has continued to promote the importance of shared values and ideals. In the late sixties, the camp ended its association with the church, but has continued to embrace this same core philosophy. Today, the William Lawrence Camp offers a variety of activities and is a place for youth to have fun and form lasting memories. It is a testament to William Lawrence’s commitment to providing healthy opportunities for young people and his belief in the importance of commonly shared values and ideals.
