Welcome to the wacky world of Wisconsin, a state as fun to explore as it is to pronounce! This magical land is a massive playground filled with juicy dairy delights, stunning landscapes, and yes, you guessed it - horses! Kids in Wisconsin don't just ride bikes or rollerblades, they gallop on glorious horses just as the sun is painting the sky with its golden brush. Meet our friend, Wiggly Wally the wisecracking weasel. Wally wears wacky woolen waistcoats, and has a peculiar passion for watching the horseback riders. He's no ordinary weasel, you see. He's a funny fellow who loves to make you laugh with his side-splitting, knee-slapping horse jokes. "Did you hear about the horse who moved to Wisconsin?" he'd ask, chuckling away, "He wanted to become a CHEESE-horse! Get it, because Wisconsin is famous for its cheese!" The kids in Wisconsin are just as adventurous and fun-loving as Wiggly Wally. They think nothing of saddling up their four-legged friends and heading off for a day of equine excitement. You can see them navigating through the lush green fields, their laughter echoing across the hills. Sometimes, they even engage in playful races, their faces flushed with the thrill of the ride. After a day of heart-pumping adventure, they gather around to share tales of their horse-riding escapades, their eyes twinkling brighter than the stars above. Their laughter and cheers catch the wind and travel across the state, spreading the infectious joy of the Wisconsin horse riders. In Wisconsin, horseback riding isn't just an activity, it's a way of life. It's about the camaraderie, the open landscapes, the thrill of the ride, and of course, the chuckles shared with Wiggly Wally. So, grab your riding boots, Wisconsin kids, it's time for another day of horsing around!

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.
