Once upon a time, in a land nestled between two mighty rivers, stood the vibrant state of New York, where the skyscrapers reached out to tickle the clouds and pizza slices were as large as kites. Its heart was a dizzying labyrinth of taxis, lights, and people, but this city-state was also home to lush green forests, shimmering lakes, and mountains that whispered secrets of the ancient earth. Here, the children were as lively as the city itself; a tribe of bright-eyed explorers and dreamers, always ready for their next big adventure. They were as diverse as the city's flavors, each one unique, each one special. But what these NY kiddos loved the most was their legendary Field Trips. You see, their classrooms weren't just confined to four walls; every corner of the metropolis and every leaf in the woodland was a page from the greatest book they could ever read. Leading these fantastic forays was their quirky guide, a cool cat named Skateboard Sam. Sam was no ordinary feline. He was a hipster cat who wore funky spectacles, sported a rainbow-colored tail, and rode a magical skateboard that glided above the ground. And oh boy, did Sam know every nook and cranny of New York! From the top of towering Empire State Building to the depths of the ancient Adirondack caves, they followed Sam, weaving through the city streets and hiking up the trails, their laughter echoing amongst the trees and skyscrapers. Each Field Trip was a roller-coaster of discovery, full of the magic of New York and the boundless curiosities of childhood. So strap on your adventure hats, kiddos, because in New York, every day is a Field Trip with Skateboard Sam!

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.
