About SPARK

SPARK (Sports Play and Active Recreation for Kids) is a nationally researched physical activity after-school program designed to meet activity recommendations for children ages 5 -14. SPARK promotes quality, daily fitness-related activities for up to one hour per day and encourages kids to be “lifelong movers.”

If your school or organization provides after-school programming or summer camp, it may qualify for SPARK Active Recreation, a Highmark Healthy High 5 program. For information on becoming a SPARK site, go to Become a SPARK Site.
