Deep in the heartland of Texas, where armadillos play poker and cowboy hats serve as frisbees, there's a group of extraordinary kids like no other. They're not your typical tumbleweed-chasing, cowboy boot-wearing Texas kids. No siree, they're the wave-riding, flip-twisting, Texas wakeboarding whippersnappers! Just imagine it - amidst the wild cacti and sprawling plains, lies an oasis of sparkling lakes. And on those lakes, you'll find the Wake Warriors, a band of Texas kids who spend their sun-soaked afternoons zooming across the water on their wakeboards. Leading the tribe is their fearless leader, Captain Rodeo Splash, a kangaroo cowboy with a neon wakeboard. He's as fast as a rattlesnake and as funny as a jackrabbit on a pogo stick. Captain Rodeo Splash teaches the kids to twist like tornadoes, flip like flapjacks, and carve through the water with the precision of a longhorn steer. They’ve got courage as big as Texas itself, and laughter that echoes all the way to the Rio Grande. When they're not out there making waves, they're up to all sorts of funny hijinks; from using their wakeboards as super-sized spatulas for pancake flipping contests, to having epic squirt gun fights with iced tea. So, if you ever find yourself in Texas, watch out for the Wake Warriors, led by the kangaroo cowboy himself. They’re not just some kids with wakeboards, they're a legend in the making. Texas-sized fun, laughter, and adventure await in this exciting, wakeboarding world!

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.
