Participants will engage in physical training, attend insightful classes, and interact with female firefighters and medics from HCESD48 and other Greater Houston Area departments.
HCESD48 is also thrilled to announce that Mrs. Colorado 2021, Danette Haag, will return to Camp Spark this year. Danette, a motivational guru and a registered nurse, is the recipient of the 2019 Northern Colorado Woman of Courage award. Through her empowering "Beauty from Ashes" program, she shares her own narrative of overcoming a severe burn injury. Her story inspires campers to identify their inherent beauty, recognize life's blessings amid hardship, and embrace the strength within them.

Aimed at helping teen girls see their incredible value and inspire them to live a full life, this program solidified the ethos of Camp Spark and resonates deeply with its mission.
With limited spots available, don't miss out on this opportunity to have a fun, empowering, and transformative summer experience. Due to the high volume of applications, HCESD48 is requesting that only those who can commit to attending all four days of the camp register. Cadets will be notified on or before April 1, 2024.
