Once upon a time, in the animated state of New Jersey, a quirky flock of youngsters ruled the tennis courts. With their little tennis rackets flashing in the sunlight, this amusing battalion of tennis-obsessed children was led by their cool imaginary friend, a giant Jersey tomato named Tommy. New Jersey, known for its scintillating beaches, bustling boardwalks, and vibrant cities, was also home to these tennis-loving munchkins. They played tennis everywhere, from the broad lawns of their neighborhood parks to the sandy beaches of the Jersey Shore. Tommy, with his big, red, juice-filled body, was an integral part of every game. He played the role of the ball, bouncing around with gleeful abandon! These Jersey kids were wonderfully funny, each with a unique personality as colorful as a rainbow. There was Billy, who was as quick as a bunny but could not hit a shot without tripping over his shoelaces. Sally, the smallest of all, could smash the ball with the force of a rhinoceros, sending poor tomato Tommy soaring through the sky. And then there was the gangly, noodle-limbed Eddie. He’d twist and twirl before every serve, performing a little dance that sent everyone into fits of laughter. Watching him try to serve the giant tomato Tommy was a sight to behold! In this quirky corner of New Jersey, tennis was not just a sport. It was a mega-festival of fun, laughter and camaraderie. With every whacky serve, every goofy smash, and every hilarious trip, the sport became an unforgettable adventure. And at the heart of it all was Tommy, the giant bouncing tomato, making every game in the Garden State a grand spectacle of amusement.

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.
