In the whimsical land of New Jersey, a state known for its vibrant boardwalks, lush greenery, and an inexplicable number of diners, dwells a troop of extraordinary kids engaged in a magical activity known as Theater/Drama. New Jersey, or as it's known in the secret world of drama - "The Stage State," is a hidden treasure trove of talent, where kids get to explore their dramatic genius. Our story revolves around a quirky imaginary character, Sir Thespian Llama, or as his friends call him, "Thespi-Llama." Now Thespi-Llama isn't your ordinary llama. He doesn't graze meadows or climb mountains. He's got a passion for the theater, a snazzy waistcoat, and a habit of reciting Shakespeare at the most unexpected of times. The kids of New Jersey, inspired by their furry, dramatic compatriot, dive headfirst into the world of theater! They're the kind of kids who treat life as their stage, never missing a chance to perform, be it at school, at the dinner table, or even while brushing their teeth! They play everything from rambunctious pirates to wise wizards, from giggling goblins to elegant elves, with a zeal that can outshine Broadway! This bunch of drama enthusiasts, led by our Thespi-Llama, fill every day with their infectious laughter, wild creativity, and a sprinkle of madness. They make their state proud, keeping the drama alive, in more ways than one. So, when you ask someone about New Jersey, they might talk about the beaches, the parks, or the food, but if you ask Thespi-Llama, he'd say it's the kids in theater who make this state truly extraordinary!

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 Spring Lake Day Camp, we strive to provide our campers with a safe and nurturing environment that encourages exploration and adventure. We are an American Camp Association (ACA) accredited camp, which means that our commitment to a standard of care with prudence is one of the highest available in the country. We focus on enhancing self-confidence, developing leadership and communication skills, and providing a positive and beneficial summer experience. Our outstanding programs offer a wide variety of activities, from team sports and aquatics to creative arts and adventure activities. We believe that the outdoor learning experience of camp encourages healthy risk-taking, and helps to build the emotional IQ and necessary skills for the modern world. We foster sportsmanship, leadership, determination, and cooperation in a supportive and encouraging environment, while offering healthy competition and positive reinforcement to give each camper a sense of personal growth. With our mission in mind, we strive to make each summer at Spring Lake Day Camp a unique, fun, and memorable experience.
