Deep in the heart of Texas, where the tumbleweeds roll and the armadillos roam, there's a bunch of kids that kick a ball with more than just their feet, they kick it with their hearts. This isn't just any ball, mind you, it's the legendary round, checkered globe of dreams known to the universe as a soccer ball. Meet Billy Bob the Boot! He's not a cowboy, or a sheriff, or a chili-cook-off champion. Oh, no! Billy Bob's a spry, feisty, turbo-charged soccer sneaker, with rainbow laces that light up when he runs. He's a soccer sensation, leading his team, the Texas Tornadoes, to victory one goal at a time. The Tornadoes aren't your average bunch of kiddos. They're as tough as a longhorn steer and twice as fast. They've got the spirit of a mustang, the determination of a jackrabbit, and the precision of a barn owl swooping in for its dinner. When they're on the field, they spin, they dash, they leap! It's like watching a group of kangaroos at a disco. But it's not all serious business. They've got grins as wide as the Rio Grande. They laugh so hard, even the cacti seem to giggle. And they celebrate their goals with a dance that would make the prairie dogs applaud. It's quite a spectacle, I assure you. So, if you ever find yourself in the Lone Star State, keep your eyes peeled for Billy Bob the Boot and his extraordinary gang of soccer whizzes. They're a hot-tempered, high-spirited, boot-scootin' spectacle that's as wild and wonderful as Texas itself.

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
At URJ Greene Family Camp, camp magic isn't just for summer! We bring the joy, camaraderie, and enriching activities of camp into every day of the year. We've made it our mission to be a constant source of engaging Jewish experiences, broadcasting the best of our camp activities to our community, no matter the season. We're proud to say our programs, both summer and year-round, are firmly rooted in four core Jewish values. First, we emphasize Hineni - being an individual and understanding one's unique worth. Second, we promote Reut - the creation of meaningful, lasting relationships. We also value Kavod, meaning respect for peers and oneself. And, finally, we celebrate Am Yisrael, the community of Jewish people. These time-honored, universally embraced values provide the foundation for every event we organize. They're how we anchor our activities in the rich tapestry of Jewish tradition. By doing so, we aim to ensure that Judaism remains relevant, accessible, and meaningful for all our campers in the present day.
