Deep in the heart of the tiny but mighty state of Rhode Island, there is a bustling group of kids who stir up more than just a clam chowder! Say hello to the Rhode Island Rascals, a group of culinary curious kids who can sauté, simmer and season like they've graduated from the most prestigious chef schools. Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the USA, but it has a big heart, filled with sandy beaches, historic lighthouses, and a love for good food! The Rascals find inspiration in the state's vibrant food culture. They adventure from the bustling city of Providence, known for its gourmet scene, to the quaint coastal towns, famous for their fresh seafood, gathering flavors for their kitchen endeavors. Leading the pack is their fearless leader, Chef Whiskers, a quirky, talking seagull in a chef's hat, who learned his culinary skills from an old sailor. With every flap of his wings, he sprinkles a touch of magic and a lot of laughter into every dish. He guides the Rascals through their culinary journey with a caw and a chuckle, turning kitchens into playgrounds and cooking into a hilarious escapade. Whether they're whipping up a batch of Rhode Island's famous johnnycakes or creating a new recipe with Narragansett Creamery cheese, the Rhode Island Rascals know that the secret ingredient is always a heaping spoonful of fun. So, come join the Rhode Island Rascals and Chef Whiskers as they cook up a storm, and discover that in the tiny state of Rhode Island, the flavors and the laughter are always larger than life!

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.
