In the sun-soaked, orange-scented state of Florida, where the alligators grin like naughty comedians and palm trees sway like giant green cheerleaders, a group of vibrant, young artists create their own colorful world. You see, in Florida, the sun doesn't just shine, it dances, and the ocean doesn't just wave, it performs an eternal jazz number. Hence, it's no surprise that Florida kids have this extraordinary knack for painting. Buddy Brush, a mischievous flamingo with a rainbow-colored beak and a magical paintbrush for tail feathers, guides these mini Picassos. Oh yes, Buddy's no ordinary flamingo! He's the Picasso of the Everglades, the Van Gogh of Miami, the Kahlo of Key West. He's got more colors on his beak than a box full of crayons, and when he dips that beak into the sparkling Florida water, it transforms into a brush of a thousand hues. Every day, Buddy Brush swoops down from his cloud nine, spreading pigmented showers of creativity over these young Floridian painters. They, with their sun-kissed faces, paint the most vivid sunsets, the wildest alligators, the juiciest oranges, and of course, the goofiest flamingos. Equipped with their paintbrushes, they create their masterpieces, each brush stroke narrating a tale as enchanting as the magical Florida itself. Sometimes, the kids paint Buddy too, and he poses like a superstar, one leg folded, beak tilted, and a wink in his eye. Isn't that an amusing sight? A flamingo that paints and also gets painted! In Florida, it's all part of the fun. So, buckle up for a wild, vibrant, and humorous ride with Buddy Brush and his gang of junior painters in the ever-enchanting state of Florida.

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.
At Foundation for Dreams, we strive to create a safe and supportive environment for children with special needs. Through our Dream Oaks Camp program, we are proud to offer a unique space for children to recognize one another as individuals, not by their disabilities. Our goal is to give every individual with special needs the same opportunities to learn and grow, fostering meaningful connections and developing a more comprehensive skill set. Foundation for Dreams is the only organization in Southwest Florida that provides year-round residential camp sessions for all children with varying ability levels and chronic and/or terminal medical conditions. We believe that with the right support, children with special needs can go on to lead fulfilling lives.
