SPARK Day Camp, a dynamic three-day leadership experience, is designed for aspiring young leaders—both girls and boys in Grades VI–VIII. Through teamwork, outdoor adventure, creativity, and confidence-building activities, participants begin their leadership journey in a safe, supportive, and inspiring environment. 

Now, we are looking for passionate and motivated young adults to join our SPARK Camp Staff Team. YMCA is excited to announce an Open Call for Camp Staff for the 2026 SPARK Day Camp, taking place Tuesday-Thursday, 23–25 June 2026, 9 am – 4 pm, in Bitola. 

If you are passionate about youth development, leadership, and making a positive impact — SPARK is where your leadership journey begins. This experience is highly valuable for future educators (in youth work, psychology, pedagogy and social work).
