Fall Break Hoops Action!

Our fall break campers brought the energy and excitement to the court for a fun-filled 3v3 basketball SPARring session!

From making new friends and cheering each other on to our staff free-throw fun, the day was filled with laughter, teamwork, and unforgettable memories.

Our cheerleaders kept the energy high as everyone showed their support and celebrated one another!

Fall Break Camp was all about building friendships, staying active, trying new things, and having FUN! We love seeing our campers connect, encourage one another, and enjoy every moment together. ❤️🏀

That's what SPAR Recreation is all about — building friendships, creating memories, and having FUN !
