In the mystical land of NY, also known as the Empire State, where skyscrapers stretch towards the sky and apple trees grow bigger than bear hugs, live a band of kids with a special kind of magic. They are the Arrow Avengers! A ragtag team of bow and arrow aficionados that could hit a bull's eye with an apple stem if you dared them to. Their leader? A funny, quirky character named Benny "Bulls-Eye" Brundlebop. Benny, with his comical headgear that somehow combined a baseball cap with an old-timey sheriff's hat, was just as likely to be found cracking jokes as he was to be demonstrating his archery prowess. The twinkle in his eye was as sharp as his arrows. Benny was the heart of NY's archery scene, leading his team of merry marksmen and markswomen through the concrete jungle and parks of NY. From the foothills of Adirondacks to the hustle and bustle of Times Square, these kids made NY their playground, with their bows and arrows never far away. Benny and the Arrow Avengers were heroes of a different kind. No dragons to slay or princesses to rescue, their mission was to keep the spirit of archery alive, spreading laughter, joy, and the thrill of hitting that perfect bulls-eye. Their laughter echoed off the NY skyline, as they traded jokes, challenged each other in friendly archery competitions, and occasionally, accidentally shot an apple off a hot dog stand. In a city that never sleeps, the Arrow Avengers were the apple of NY's eye, bringing a unique flavor of fun to the Big Apple.

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.
