In the magical, sun-drenched state of Florida where talking alligators wear sunglasses and palm trees sway like happy hula dancers, there is a special tribe of kids known as the 'Mini Golf Masters'. These aren't your regular, run-of-the-mill, video-game-playing, comic-book-reading kids. No, siree! These kids have the power to transform windmills, castles, and even a pirate ship into their very own mini-golf courses. They are the swashbucklers of the tiny greens, the knights of the dimpled ball, the princesses and princes of the plastic putter. Our tale begins in the heart of a sizzling summer, when these Mini Golf Masters gather for the annual 'Sunshine Showdown'. Their leader, a cool dude named 'Captain Birdie', is a twelve-year-old whiz kid who can putt a ball through a loop-de-loop, over a grinning crocodile, and into a hole with one eye closed, standing on one foot, and eating a popsicle all at the same time. His neon green hat, always worn backward, is his lucky charm and he's as famous for his funny jokes as he is for his incredible golfing skills. This motley crew of mini golfers, with their brightly colored golf balls, laughter ringing louder than seagull squawks, and determination as unshakeable as a Florida orange tree, are the heart and soul of Florida's mini golf scene. Adventure awaits at every corner, every course a new tale waiting to unfold. So, if you're in Florida, keep an eye out for these masters of the mini green; you might just be the next recruit for the 'Mini Golf Masters'!

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.
