In a not-so-ordinary corner of the United States, where the sun smiles warmly and the nights twinkle with fireflies, sits the pizza-shaped state of New Jersey. A place filled with sandy beaches, bustling boardwalks, and towns where everyone knows your name, it's a paradise for kids who love to explore! But there's one thing that truly sets New Jersey apart from everywhere else. It’s a secret society of children known as the "Kayak Kids Club" (KKC). They are a nifty bunch of kids who find joy in paddling their colorful kayaks across the Garden State's sun-kissed lakes, rivers and the mighty Atlantic. Leading these daring aquatic adventurers is their fearless leader, Captain Noodle Arms. Don't let his name fool you! Though his arms may appear as bendy as cooked spaghetti, he can paddle faster than a duck on a water slide! With his bright red kayak, Captain Noodle Arms leads the KKC through the sparkling waters of NJ like a pizza delivery boy on roller skates. These kids may look like your average Jersey kids, but they've got water in their veins and adventure in their hearts. They can tell the difference between a paddle and a pizza paddle, and they're the only kids in New Jersey who wear life vests to school. Not because they have to, but because they're always ready for the next unforgettable kayaking escapade. They've got the bravery of a lion, the agility of a catfish, and the appetite for fun bigger than the largest pizza in Jersey!

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.
