In the enormous, sprawling wonderland named Texas, where cowboys roam and armadillos play hide-and-seek in the cacti, a group of lively kids embark on an aquatic adventure of epic proportions. The Lone Star state, renowned for its blistering heat and spicy barbecue, is also home to the Swimming Squirrel Squad, a team of super-swimmers, who splash their way through the Texan summers. At the helm of this squad is the inimitable, unflappable, and slightly nutty Captain Nutters, a red squirrel with a flamboyant cowboy hat and boots to match. He traded his love for acorns for the thrill of the water after accidentally diving into a birdbath one scorching summer afternoon. Now, there's no tree too high or pool too deep for this pint-sized pioneer. The kids, following Captain Nutters' energetic lead, practice their freestyle, breaststroke, and butterfly in the shimmering blue pools that dot the Texan landscape like sapphire jewels. From Amarillo to Austin, El Paso to Houston, the Swimming Squirrel Squad is known for their fearless flips, dynamic dives, and of course, their uproarious pool-side banter. Laughing till their bellies ache after a hilarious cannonball contest, or chomping on watermelons during break time, these children know how to make a splash! The sun might be blazing down on Texas, but the real heat is in the friendly competition between these swimming sensations. With Captain Nutters leading the charge, the Swimming Squirrel Squad is the coolest thing in the Texas heat, showing everyone that in Texas, swimming isn’t just an activity, it’s a way of life.

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.
