Little Spark is a non-profit with a mission to Empower through Education – find the Little Spark Library at the campground!
We have a multitude of enticements competing for our attention and recognize the life-giving beauty of a story. To cultivate virtuous character, build background knowledge, time must be spent in quality literature to nurture a love of reading. Our goal is to advocate for literacy and cultivate a life-long love of reading – the Little Spark Library has over 350+ books curated for your learning!
We will also have a Little Free Library for book exchanges – “take a book, share a book”!
Thank you to our generous donors that contributed books to the library!
