Once upon a time, in a cheese loving state named Wisconsin, there were little Wiscon-kids who were nothing short of magical. Fondly known as Bucky's Bandits, these kiddos were expert treasure hunters, but not for gold or silver, they sought treasures of another kind, the sensory kind! In the land of the Packers where the cows mooed louder than a honking goose, these kiddos dived into sensory play activities that would make even the busiest honeybee stop and stare. For Bucky's Bandits, sensory play was no less than a carnival. A squish of the playdough, a splash of finger paint, and a rustle of dried leaves were all they needed for an epic adventure. And guess what? Their leader was a jolly chap named Wobbly Wally. With a round belly that shook like a bowl full of jelly beans, Wally was as colorful and delightful as the rainbow sprinkles on a butter pecan sundae. He had a nose that twitched like a bunny when he sniffed out sensory treasures, and the twinkling eyes of an elf that never missed a clue. Under Wally's guidance, the kids used their noses to sniff out the best cheese, their ears to hear the faintest whispers of the wind, their fingers to feel the softness of a feather, and their eyes to admire the beauty of a rainbow. They would build castles with macaroni and cheese, create colorful paintings with beetroot, and even plant magic beans! With every squelch, squish, splash, and rustle, the Bandits discovered new wonders of the world. And while the rest of the world may have thought that these Wiscon-kids were just playing around, we know better, don't we? After all, they were on a sensory adventure, exploring the world one touch, one smell, one sound, and one sight at a time.

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.
