Testimonials
I just had to share—this morning my son looked at me and said, “I love camp, Mom!” I almost fell over! Ha! It was such a wonderful moment, and it made me think of how much this summer has meant to him.
Thank you so much for your patience and support, especially with this being our first summer at Spark. We really appreciated the photos during those tougher drop-offs—they helped immensely. We’re so grateful my son had you guiding him through his camp experience.
Wishing you a wonderful rest of the summer!

Hi Joe and Janice,
I want to thank you and all of your awesome employees for a wonderful summer! My daughter had a great time at camp and can’t wait for next year! The variety of experiences that you offer and the sense of community that you instill in your campers is truly special. I also really appreciate the frequent and open communication throughout the season.
Can’t wait for next year! Thanks again!

Just wanted to say thank you to all of you and to all the Spark staff for an awesome summer, once again! Our daughters had so much fun, and it felt good knowing they were in great hands every day. We really appreciate the open communication and sense of community you foster. Although the camp size has increased a lot since that first year, you’ve always made it feel like one big family. ❤️ We hope you have a great year, and we can’t wait for next summer!

2nd Grade Camper
My wife and I would like to thank Joe, Janice and the rest of the staff for putting on an amazing summer for the kids during these trying times.
Our daughter had a blast. She was a little emotional on our ride home saying how she already misses everyone. There was so many different things to do at Spark, it really kept her interest all summer long.
We thank you all and look forward to another fun filled summer next year.

Thank you to all the Spark staff for giving my boys such a wonderful summer. You have all made such an impact on my boys.
My son cried as we left today saying that he will miss everyone there and that he was so sad that camp has come to an end.
It was a summer they won’t forget. Thank you again.

It was the best place to be. I loved to learn how to swim and skate. I miss everyone.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to thank you for everything. My son enjoyed every minute being there and formed some really important bonds. He is incredibly sad that it is over but already looking forward to next year.
Take care and we'll see you in 2022 🙂

Everyone was very kind, encouraging and friendly. My son had a great time and became a much better swimmer and skater. He was very fond of his counselors.

The color war was amazing. And my son loved performing arts. His swimming improved so much as well!
J.L., Shrewsbury
My son really enjoyed the activities. The counselors were great and the communication was fantastic. Keep up the good work and can’t wait for summer 2022!
D.L., Middletown
The quality of the enrichment activities outside of swimming and athletic activities was great - the art activities seemed fun, creative and my son brought home some masterpieces. It was great to hear that he was learning how to play a ukelele as part of the music activities also. Having the opportunity to utilize all of the facilities at the complex was also an excellent benefit.

TRANSPORTATION
SPARK Day Camp is happy to offer Door-to-Door bus service for our campers and their families. Pick-up and drop off times will be determined each year based on registration and developing the most efficient routes. In general, pick-up will be around 7:45-8:30am and drop off approximately 4:15-5pm. Families will be notified in advance, prior to the summer starting, of their pick-up and drop off times.
We work with a professional bus company. All drivers have a CDL (License). Their driving records are carefully monitored by the NJ Department of Transportation, and they are accustomed to working with school aged children throughout the year.
The cost for this service is $125/week per camper and can be selected during your registration or any time after enrolling.
Currently, Door-to-Door transportation is planned for areas in the following towns:

Of course, if camp transportation is not needed, parent pick-up and drop off is always welcome and our staff will be there cheering as you and our buses arrive.
