In the puny but proud state of Rhode Island, tucked away in the northeastern corner of the United States, is a band of fearless warriors. These warriors are not grown-ups, oh no! These bravehearts are none other than the kids of Rhode Island, adventurers who are always hunting for the next big thrill. More precisely, the next big "swing" - Zip Lining! They may not have capes, but they sure do soar through the skies like superheroes. Meet the leader of this daredevil gang - Ziggy the Zipliner, a jovial lad with a twinkle in his eye and a never-ending zest for life. Ziggy, with his unruly mop of hair and a grin so wide that it could stretch across Rhode Island, loves zipping through the sky, the wind whistling past his ears making his unruly hair even more disheveled. Rhode Island, though petite, is bursting with the beautiful greenery of forests, shimmering rivers, and towering cliffs, making it the perfect adventure playground for Ziggy and his crew. They zip, zoom, and zag across the state, laughing and yelling, taking in the breathtaking views and the exhilarating rush of adrenaline. But don't let this fool you. Our zip-lining crew isn't just about thrill and adventure. They're also quite the comedians! If you ever get the chance to listen in, you'll hear them shouting jokes and puns at each other as they zip past. "Why don't scientists trust atoms?" Ziggy would yell, and from the distance comes the reply, "Because they make up everything!" Laughter fills the air, almost as infectious as the sheer joy of their adventure. These Rhode Island kids sure know how to make their state proud!

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.
