In the enchanting land of Georgia, known for its magnificent peaches and charming southern hospitality, resides a group of magical kids with a unique twinkle in their eyes. These aren't just your ordinary, everyday kids. They are Georgia's finest, the "Jewelry Jamboree Geniuses". These creative kiddos spend their sunny afternoons crafting beautiful jewelry, as brilliant as Georgia's radiant sunsets over the Appalachian Mountains. Their team leader is none other than the hilarious and charming, Silly Willy the Whiskered Wombat. Silly Willy, an Australian expat, fell in love with Georgia's sweet tea and couldn't resist the pecan pies. Ever since he's taken up residence under a magnolia tree, he's been guiding the young Jewelry Jamboree Geniuses through their amazing jewelry making adventures. With Silly Willy's funny jokes and peculiar Australian accent, the group spends many afternoons laughing till their bellies hurt as they craft stunning necklaces and flashy bracelets. They weave stories as they string beads, leaving pieces of their heart and soul in each trinket they create. The Jewelry Jamboree Geniuses never miss a moment to giggle at Silly Willy’s absurdity when he pretends to put on earrings or a tiara, or when he tries to use a bead for a belly-button ring. In this whimsical world of Georgia, the Jewelry Jamboree Geniuses, under Silly Willy's guidance, create more than just pieces of jewelry. They weave together precious moments of childhood, creating laughter-filled memories that sparkle brighter than the sunniest Georgia day or the most dazzling piece of jewelry they've ever crafted.

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.
Nestled in 178 acres of lush woodland is a serene escape from the city, a place fondly known as Camp Swamp. This overnight Christian camp, located just two hours east of bustling Atlanta, has been serving as a peaceful retreat since 1992. We like to think of it as our own "little slice of heaven," offering a respite from the daily hustle and bustle, and inviting people to reconnect with nature and their spirituality. Our primary offering is a week-long summer camp, but we've expanded over the years to include more than just summer fun. As part of our mission to support families and churches, we now also host three family camps throughout the year, as well as four parent/child retreats. These events offer a chance for families to bond, parents to connect with their children, and individuals to grow in their faith. Moreover, our facilities are not exclusive to our organized events. Camp Swamp also offers rentals to schools, churches, universities, sports teams, and even business groups. Whether you're planning a camp, a retreat, or a team-building excursion, our serene setting and well-equipped facilities provide the ideal backdrop for an unforgettable experience.
