Once upon a time, in the small but mighty state of Connecticut, nestled between the hustle and bustle of New York and the historic charm of Massachusetts, there lived a bunch of super artistic and incredibly imaginative kids. These weren’t your regular paintbrush-wielding kids, oh no! These were the CT Art Wizards, and they had the magical power of turning ordinary objects into extraordinary works of art. The leader of these Art Wizards was a cool, quirky character named Doodly Dabster. With sparkling green eyes and hair as orange as a sunset, Doodly was always ready with his magic paintbrush that could create anything he imagined! With a twirl and a swish, he could paint from the colors of the rainbow or even from shades that didn't exist yet. Connecticut, with its vibrant autumn leaves, sparkling snow-covered landscapes, and sunny seaside views, served as the perfect inspiration for these young artists. They turned the stunning state parks into detailed landscape paintings, the historic buildings into charming watercolor illustrations, and the colorful birds into goofy caricatures that always brought out a chuckle. Just like the state itself, which beautifully blends the traditional with the modern, these kids could create a fusion of art styles in a snap. One moment they'd be channeling their inner Picassos with abstract art, the next, they'd be creating vibrant graffiti like modern street artists. With the CT Art Wizards around, every day in the state of Connecticut was like a magical art adventure! After all, in the world of art, anything is possible!

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.
