In the tiny, enchanting state of Vermont, tucked away amidst the magnificent forests of maple trees and hilly landscapes, live a brigade of extraordinary kids known as the "Vermont Vittles Virtuosos," or V3 for short. Now, the V3 squad is not your usual group of kids; they are master chefs in tiny bodies, who can whisk an egg faster than a squirrel can climb a tree! Our story takes place in a vibrant city named Burlington, where the air is as sweet as the state's famous maple syrup, and the trees sway like the rhythm of a dance. Every day, you can hear the laughter of the children echoing through the green mountains as they gather in their magical kitchen, which is hidden away in a giant, friendly pumpkin named Percy. Percy, with his vibrant orange skin and goofy grin, is the V3's secret headquarters. Inside, it's a culinary wonderland filled with spatulas and saucepans, whisks and wooden spoons, and every kind of food you can imagine. From the freshest fruits for their pies to the most colorful vegetables for their rainbow salads, everything is at their tiny fingertips. The V3 squad, led by their captain, a hilarious, pancake-flipping bear named Benny the Butterbear, embark on wacky culinary adventures together. They giggle as Benny juggles eggs, gasp when he flips pancake towers, and cheer when he catches them all without breaking a single yolk! Cooking isn't just an activity for these kids; it's an adventure – a wild, taste-bud-tingling journey into the heart of Vermont's finest flavors. So, grab your apron and your sense of fun, and join the V3 as they cook up a storm in the land of maple syrup and mountains!

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.
Keewaydin Dunmore is a summer camp like no other, located on beautiful Lake Dunmore in the heart of the Green Mountains in Vermont. Boys ages 8-16 return year after year for the magic of a Keewaydin summer. Campers come from across the US and international locations, representing different religions, races, cultural backgrounds, and socio-economic backgrounds. Each boy is valued for who they are. The camp is divided into four “wigwams” (i.e. age groups): Annwi for 8-10-year-olds, Waramaug for 10-12-year-olds, Wiantinaug for 12-14-year-olds and Moosalamoo for 14-16 year olds. Each wigwam has its own living area and waterfront as shown on the illustrated map. Activities and trips are done primarily by wigwam, but the camp also comes together to eat and participate in activities and events. Established in 1910, Keewaydin Dunmore is one of the most established camps in the country and has long been at the forefront of the American camping movement. Its rich in-camp activity program and extensive trip program provide a summer camp experience that cannot be found anywhere else!
