Once upon a time, in the sun-soaked grandeur of the Golden State, California, the land of beaches, tacos, and movie stars, lived an extraordinary bunch of kids. Unlike most youngsters who were busy dueling with video game controllers, these kids were part of an elite team called the "Arrow Avengers," and they were mastering the ancient art of archery. Leading the Arrow Avengers was a character cooler than a polar bear's toenails and funnier than a monkey's uncle. His name was Archibald the Amazing Archer, or as his friends called him, Archie. Archie was not your typical archer. He was a spaghetti-loving, sunglasses-wearing squirrel who could shoot an arrow with an accuracy that would make Olympic champions green with envy. Archie and his knee-slappingly hilarious troop of tiny archers, trained under the Californian sunshine, transforming parking lots into archery arenas, using palm trees as bow holders. Archie's humor was as sharp as his arrows, and his laughter was infectious. His favorite joke was, "Why don't archers tell secrets? Because they always go straight to the point!" The Arrow Avengers were a laugh riot, a bunch of archery-obsessed comedians, shooting arrows and punchlines with equal skill. They embodied the spirit of California - full of life, laughter, and a dash of the extraordinary. Each arrow they shot was not just a piece of sharpened wood soaring through the air, but a symbol of their joy, ambition, and unique Californian spirit. They were more than just archers; they were the heart of the Golden State, the merry marksmen of California.

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.
