In the fantastical realm of a state named Massachusetts, often shortened to MA by its friendly inhabitants, nestled between the mystical green mountains and the enchanting Atlantic Ocean, a peculiar tribe of snow-loving kids abide. These children, known far and wide as the 'Ski-cadets', zoom down the snow-kissed ranges with a passion that outshines the brightest star. Leading the Ski-cadets is a bumbling, yet big-hearted character, aptly named Ski-Squatch, who's half yeti and half ski champion. Ski-Squatch, who mysteriously emerged from a giant snowball during the Great Snowfall of ‘94, is a massive, white, fluffy creature with skis for feet, goggles over his enormous blue eyes, and a laugh that sounds like a walrus gargling ice cubes. Every winter, the Ski-cadets, under the tutelage of Ski-Squatch, embark on knee-slapping, uproarious escapades down the slopes of Berkshire’s Mountains. Dressed in vibrant neon ski suits, with matching helmets that sparkle brighter than the Northern Lights, these Ski-cadets whoosh down the slopes leaving a glittering trail of frosty laughter in their wake. Their cheeks rosy from the chilly wind and their spirits high from the thrill of the ride, these kids are the unbeatable champions of their frost-coated paradise. Ski-Squatch, despite occasionally misplacing his ski poles or mistaking a tree for a fellow skier, guides the Ski-cadets with an undying enthusiasm that is as infectious as a giggle in a silent room. Their quests for the perfect slope and the perfect hot cocoa after a day of skiing is a tale of camaraderie, bravery, and endless amusement that paints the snowy heart of MA with colors brighter than a rainbow on a crystal clear winter day.

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.
