SPARK- Student Pathways to Adventure, Resilience and Knowledge
About Us
The SPARK after-school and summer program... ...is the result of many local agencies, organizations, and individuals (including the UW Extension 4H program, Ashland Parks and Rec, and the Sigurd Olson Environmental Institute) collaborating to create a fun, safe, inspiring, adventurous space for tweens and teens to ignite their inner superhero. The goal is for students to build personal resilience by discovering activities that “light them up,” and get them excited about life! Research has shown that teens who develop healthy relationships with positive adults and who find activities and pursuits that they are passionate about are less likely to engage with drugs, alcohol, smoking and other risky behaviors. Our mentors will be working with the students to help them learn about themselves, what they are passionate about and how to pursue those interests in healthy ways. The youth who participate will be exposed regularly to new activities, lessons, games, sports, hobbies, and skills. Much of the programming will be tailored to the interests of the students who are involved.
