Deep in the heartland of Texas, where armadillos play poker and cowboy hats serve as frisbees, there's a group of extraordinary kids like no other. They're not your typical tumbleweed-chasing, cowboy boot-wearing Texas kids. No siree, they're the wave-riding, flip-twisting, Texas wakeboarding whippersnappers! Just imagine it - amidst the wild cacti and sprawling plains, lies an oasis of sparkling lakes. And on those lakes, you'll find the Wake Warriors, a band of Texas kids who spend their sun-soaked afternoons zooming across the water on their wakeboards. Leading the tribe is their fearless leader, Captain Rodeo Splash, a kangaroo cowboy with a neon wakeboard. He's as fast as a rattlesnake and as funny as a jackrabbit on a pogo stick. Captain Rodeo Splash teaches the kids to twist like tornadoes, flip like flapjacks, and carve through the water with the precision of a longhorn steer. They’ve got courage as big as Texas itself, and laughter that echoes all the way to the Rio Grande. When they're not out there making waves, they're up to all sorts of funny hijinks; from using their wakeboards as super-sized spatulas for pancake flipping contests, to having epic squirt gun fights with iced tea. So, if you ever find yourself in Texas, watch out for the Wake Warriors, led by the kangaroo cowboy himself. They’re not just some kids with wakeboards, they're a legend in the making. Texas-sized fun, laughter, and adventure await in this exciting, wakeboarding world!

Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
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.
