Once upon a time, in the charming state of Connecticut, nestled between New York and Rhode Island, lived a group of extraordinary kids known as the "Splashtacular Swimmers". Connecticut, a magical land of endless beauty, wrapped in a sparkling blanket of autumn leaves, snow-dusted winters, blooming springs and sunlit summers, was the perfect place for these water wizards. These kids weren't just any ordinary swimmers; they were Connecticut's greatest, splashing their way through every river, lake, and pool that could fit their flippers. Their leader, a buoyant boy named Bob, was no bigger than a beluga but swam quicker than a quokka can climb. Bob had a slick, shiny head which he claimed made him swim faster. The Splashtacular Swimmers could be found at sunrise, cutting through the calm waters of the Connecticut River like hot knives through ice cream. They held races in Lake Compounce, leaving trails of laughter and light-hearted competition in their wake. Even during the chilly winter days, they'd plunge into the indoor pools, their chattering teeth turned into roars of laughter once they were under the heated water. They were a diverse group, hailing from the bustling cities of Hartford and New Haven, the tranquil countryside of Litchfield Hills, and the shoreline towns of Mystic and New London. But despite their different backgrounds, they all shared one thing in common: a love for swimming that was as deep as the Long Island Sound itself. One might say the Splashtacular Swimmers were as much a part of Connecticut as its lush green landscapes, picturesque lighthouses, and delightful lobster rolls. Indeed, the state wouldn't be quite the same without Bob and his band of buoyant buddies, who splashed their way right into the heart of Connecticut.

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.
