Widely known for its sunny beaches, towering lighthouses, and juicy peaches, the state of South Carolina can now add a new feather to its hat – being home to the most energetic, enthusiastic, and elastic bunch of young Taekwondo enthusiasts. Intriguing, isn't it? Let’s fasten our virtual seatbelts and zoom into the heart of this vibrant state, where a band of bravehearted kids is practicing a set of swift moves, sharp kicks, and nimble footwork. Our tour guide for this fun journey? None other than Chuckles- the Cool Chinchilla! Chuckles is a hilarious furry creature, who despite not having the traditional lean physique of a martial artist, is South Carolina's most entertaining and knowledgeable Taekwondo commentator. Chuckles wears a black belt around his fluffy waist and spectacles that are far too large for his small eyes. He spends most of his day chuckling, eating peaches, and of course, observing these young Taekwondo practitioners. He loves to narrate their stories with his funny and imaginative tales, making everyone laugh until their bellies ache. These kids, under the watchful eyes of Chuckles, are no ordinary fighters. They are, in fact, the 'Peachy Punchers'! They draw their energy from the spirit of their state, their love for peaches, and their passion for Taekwondo. Even Chuckles cannot help but admire their disciplined training, their respect for the sport, and their courage to take on any challenge that comes their way. After all, how many martial artists you know can perform a spinning kick while munching on a peach? Underneath the blue South Carolina skies, the echoing sound of their collective kiyaps and the sight of their celebratory peachy high-fives are a testament to a unique combination of tradition and fun that only the Peachy Punchers and Chuckles can bring! But shush, don't tell anyone, it's their sweet, little secret.

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.
