In the charmingly quirky state of New Jersey, where the squirrels have accents and the tomatoes argue about whether they're a fruit or vegetable, there lies a group of audacious kids known as the New Jersey Zip-Liners. These kids are not your average Joeys, oh no, they are a different breed of boisterous, fearless adventurers. They climb trees not just to get a better view, but to take the fastest route down. The leader of this daredevil group is a cool character named Zippy Zebra, a charismatic, fun-loving zebra who escaped from the Cape May Zoo and decided to join the kids on their zip-lining escapades. Always sporting sunglasses and a bandana, Zippy Zebra has made it his mission to teach the kids of New Jersey the art of zip-lining, whilst cracking silly zebra jokes. One morning, he'd say, "Why don't zebras take tests?" and before anyone could answer, he'd burst into laughter, "Because they can't pick up a pencil, silly!" His jokes, though often corny, never fail to make the kids laugh and lighten the mood before a thrilling zip-line ride. Riding a zipline, they'd whoosh through the air, screaming with delight and echoing Zippy’s zany zebra laughter. As they flew over the charming towns, they'd wave at the chatty tomatoes and accented squirrels, and sometimes, if they're lucky, they'd even catch a glimpse of a confused tomato trying to hang out with the apple crowd. Ah, New Jersey, a state filled with its own unique blend of charm and adventure, just like our zesty zip-lining kids.

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.
