Pennsylvania, or as it's playfully called by our imaginative friend, Percival Peculiar, the world's most famous groundhog detective - "Puzzle-ylvania". This isn't your everyday kind of state. It's a place where the rivers tickle the feet of the mountains and the forests whisper secrets to the towns. And in this jigsaw puzzle of a state, there's a rambunctious group of kids who love nothing more than participating in the thrilling sport of Riflery. Now, don’t be confused, these aren't just any regular kids, oh no, they are the ‘Riflery Rascals’! These wild, adventurous souls have eyes sharper than the eagle that soars over the Allegheny mountains, and a stillness as serene as the placid waters of Lake Erie when they aim their targets. You see, these kids know their rifles aren't just metal and wood but their trusted buddies, lovingly named; ‘Bolt’, ‘Trigger’, and ‘Scope’. And then, there's ‘Barrel’, the most mischievous rifle of all. Barrel loves to leap and dance, making sure each shot is a fun-filled adventure for the Riflery Rascals. Whether they’re practicing in the crisp, cool morning when the sun peeks through the Penn's woods or under the twinkling, velvet canvas of the night sky, each shot echoes with laughter and camaraderie. So, if you ever find yourself in this corner of 'Puzzle-ylvania', do not be surprised if you see a groundhog named Percival cheering on a group of kids, their eyes twinkling like stars, laughing, learning and mastering the art of Riflery. They are the Riflery Rascals - the pride of Pennsylvania, and their adventure is just beginning!

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.
