In the adventurous state of Vermont, tucked snugly amongst the lush Green Mountains, bike riding isn't just a pastime - it's a way of life. The kids here are not your everyday, run-of-the-mill, cookie-munching munchkins. Oh no! They are daring, tire-pedaling, bike-whizzing daredevils, constantly in competition with the mountain winds. Meet Sam Squiggles, the local legend with a head full of fiery red hair and a heart full of unending courage. Sam is known as the "Two-Wheeled Tornado" around these parts. When he's not busy slurping gallons of maple syrup straight from the trees (a true Vermonter, that one), he's off zipping down the steepest hills, his bicycle roaring like a dragon on a sugar rush, his laughter echoing through the valleys. Every morning at the crack of dawn, kids from all corners of Vermont gather, armed with their shiny bikes, hearts pounding with excitement. You can hear the far-off "moo" of a cow, as if cheering them on. With a quick nod to his fellow bikers, Sam would kick off the day's race. Fire in their eyes, the young riders pedal like there's no tomorrow, their laughter ringing through the crisp Vermont air. But it's not all about who comes first. Oh no! It's about the journey, the whooshing of the wind in their hair, the sweet scent of the forests, the rustling whispers of the leaves. It's about making memories and friends. So folks, if you ever find yourself in Vermont, watch out for the "Two-Wheeled Tornado" and his band of bikers. Join them, if you dare!

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.
Our campers are encouraged to do their best in activities that they enjoy, and to participate in supervised group living. We ensure each camper has the opportunity to reach their individual potential. At Windridge, our campers can develop trust & respect for their peers, as well as a sense of self-confidence. Our counselors, sports professionals, and other staff members are caring and encourage a strong sense of camaraderie. Our goal is to help campers discover the joy of participating in sports while growing in their own unique way. We believe this experience will result in positive personality growth.
