In the whimsical land of cheese and snow, famously known as Wisconsin, a rambunctious herd of kids roam, each armed with a camera and a spirit brighter than a thousand suns. They are the devoted disciples of the legendary, imaginative character, Flashbulb Finnegan, a quirky chap with a vintage camera for a head and shutter clicks for a heartbeat. Finnegan, the great, rosy-cheeked knight of photography, whose eyes twinkle like camera flashes, leads his young army in their discovery of Wisconsin’s beauty, one photo at a time. Wisconsin, you see, is the stuff of dreams, a land of enchanting forests, shimmering lakes, and sprawling farmlands. A place where cows have honorary citizenship and cheese is considered a national treasure. Enveloped in a warm embrace of four changing seasons, Wisconsin is a constantly shifting palette that the kids love to capture. From the frosty white elegance of winter’s first snowfall in Madison, to the riotous burst of autumn colors in Door County, the kids and Finnegan explore it all. They laugh and chatter, racing across the golden sunflower fields, chasing the elusive shadows of the Northwoods, and snapping the breathtaking sunsets over the Apostle Islands. Their cameras, like magic wands, reveal the hidden wonders of Wisconsin, freezing moments of joy, beauty, and adventure. Whether it's a close-up of a fuzzy bumblebee on a cherry blossom or a wide-angle shot of a cheese wheel rolling down a hill, each photo is a masterpiece. Their infectious enthusiasm and creativity could even make a curmudgeonly, old badger chuckle. But the real magic, as Flashbulb Finnegan always says, is in their eyes - those sparkling lenses that see beauty in everything and make Wisconsin the most photographed state in the whole wide world.

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.
