In the golden state of California, where the sun kisses the Pacific Ocean, and palm trees do a joyous jig in the breezy air, there exists a marvelous group of kids. These aren't your ordinary, run-of-the-mill, peanut butter and jelly sandwich munching kids, oh no! These kids are members of an elite secret club known as the Experiment Extravaganza! Their mission? To unlock the mysteries of the universe, one experiment at a time! Their leader is an extraordinary character, Professor Zany Zucchini, a man so tall and lanky, he could dunk a basketball without jumping. His hair, a wild cloud of electric static, always bristled with excitement, and his eyes sparked with curiosity and mischief. He wore a lab coat speckled with colors from past experiments; a purple splotch from when they made homemade slime, a green splash from an explosive baking soda and vinegar volcano, and a rainbow of other hues that told tales of scientific adventures. These California kids, from the magic-filled city of San Francisco to the sun-drenched beaches of San Diego, would gather around Professor Zany Zucchini and delve into the wonderful world of science. With a beaker in one hand and a magnifying glass in the other, they would embark on thrilling journeys into the micro and macro cosmos, solve mathematical mysteries, and even defy gravity! At times, things would go hilariously haywire. Like that time when little Billy's potato-powered clock started ticking backwards and made everyone a year younger! Well, not really, but they did have loads of fun and laughter. So, here's to the kids of California, the fantastic adventurers of Experiment Extravaganza, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, one wacky experiment at a time!

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 Galileo Innovation Camp, we understand the importance of nurturing our campers’ innovative potential. That’s why we’ve developed the Galileo Innovation Approach, or “GIA”, an exclusive three-part framework. We believe that all innovators need the right mindset, knowledge, and process to bring their best ideas to life. At camp, the GIA helps our campers develop a mindset that promotes innovative thinking, giving them the tools to ask the right questions and come up with creative solutions. We also provide our campers with the substantive knowledge they need to guide their breakthrough ideas and bring them to fruition. Finally, the GIA serves as a process that provides our campers with the support they need to make their innovations a reality. At Galileo Innovation Camp, we use the GIA as a lens to help our campers reach their full potential. Through this approach, we’re able to ensure that our campers have the support they need to unlock their innovative potential and bring their best ideas to life.
