Say hello to the smallest state in the USA, Rhode Island! My name is Captain Quack and I'm a mischievous duck who loves to paddle around on the cool, blue waters of this glorious state. Now, don't let its size fool you! Rhode Island may be small, but it's packed with wonderful adventures and, trust me, it’s a big deal when it comes to boating and canoeing! Ohh, the kids of Rhode Island, my quacking companions, they are a lively bunch! They love to join me, Captain Quack, for all kinds of splashy escapades. Sometimes, they are pirates, other times, they're explorers discovering new islands. And believe me, they've got some real paddle power! Imagine a sunny day, and the water is sparkling like a million tiny diamonds. The air is filled with the laughter of kids as they hoist their oars and embark on yet another aquatic adventure. The canoes, decorated with their creative and funny drawings, glide gracefully on the water as they race against each other. And, oh my feathers, the water fights they have, it's like watching a comedy show on the high seas! The kids in Rhode Island are not afraid of getting wet, they embrace it! They understand that a day without splashes is like a boat without oars. And so, with their radiant smiles and their can-do spirit, these kids add a whole new level of fun to the Rhode Island waters. So, come along, little mates, jump into your canoes and let’s paddle away. After all, an adventure with Captain Quack in the fantastic state of Rhode Island is bound to be an unforgettable fun-filled ride!

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.

Narrow River provides a number of options for paddlers of all ages and abilities to explore. One can paddle a short distance through the estuary to the beach at the mouth of the river or explore the John H. Chafee National Wildlife Refuge at Pettaquamscutt Cove. Those wishing to paddle longer distances and venture up to the ice block basins and Gilbert Stuart Stream near the head of the watershed. FUN. FUN. FUN. This is an introductory class to one of the world’s fastest-growing watersports and a kid favorite: Stand-up Paddle Boarding! We aim to teach the skills needed to paddle safely and with confidence and get kids hooked on an activity they can pursue for a lifetime! We begin all our classes by getting to know one another and our equipment on dry land and learning some paddle basics before moving to the water. On the water, we emphasize safety and learning how to control our boards through a variety of games, tasks, and activities geared towards kids and having fun while exploring and learning about the beautiful Narrow River Watershed.
