In the bustling, lively Empire State of New York, where skyscrapers touch the sky and pizzas are bigger than your head, there is a small group of brave and adventurous younglings. They are known as the Wakeboard Whiz Kids. Led by a cool and charismatic character by the name of Wobble Wally, these kids love nothing more than swapping the concrete jungle for the wild, watery expanse of the lakes and rivers that flow around their state. Wobble Wally, with his shock of purple hair and mismatched socks, is no ordinary kid. He is a wakeboarding wizard who can slice through the water like a hot knife through butter, performing tricks that would make a dolphin jealous. He can flip, spin, and twist with such style that even the fish stop to applaud. His wakeboard, patterned with holographic pizzas and named “The Big Pepperoni,” is as famous as he is. Under Wally's guidance, the Wakeboard Whiz Kids spend their summer days riding the rippling waves, their laughter echoing across the water. From the Hudson River to Lake George, they turn every ripple into a ramp and every wave into a wonder. As they soar through the air, they leave behind a spray of water that creates a rainbow on sunny days. In New York State, where the hustle and bustle never stops, these kids have discovered a unique way to make their own fun. They’ve swapped crowded streets and towering buildings for open waters and endless blue skies. Sure, they might get wet and occasionally wakeboard right into a family of ducks, but that’s all part of the adventure for the Wakeboard Whiz Kids. After all, in the words of Wobble Wally, "Life's too short to be dry!" So, grab a wakeboard and join the splashy shenanigans of the most entertaining kids in New York!

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.
