SPARKS OVERVIEW

INTRODUCTION/GATE TEST
Similar to our Cubbie Bear Hug Brochure, the Gate Test is the first and only (introduction) booklet received
in Sparks. Upon completion of this Entrance Test the clubber receives a Sparks Membership Card and
receives their first of 3 Handbooks available in Sparks.

HANDBOOKS and REVIEW
Sparks has 3 Handbooks (unlike Cubbies with only 2) used in their club: Hang Glider, Hiker, Climber. The
following sequence of completion for each grade is as follows:

  • KINDERGARTEN (1st Year of Sparks) - GATE TEST, HANG GLIDER HANDBOOK & REVIEW *
  • FIRST GRADE (Second Year of Sparks) - HIKER HANDBOOK & REVIEW *
  • SECOND GRADE (Third Year of Sparks) - CLIMBER HANDBOOK & REVIEW *
                                                ( * Following completion of Review Island are Extra Credit Workbooks )

Regardless of the age of the child, each clubber will start in the Skipper Handbook. Each Handbook
consists of:










(* Review consists of going through the Handbook a 2nd time and then completing Review Island)

Rank & Bible Drills are to be completed in order, but Crafts can be completed in any order desired for
Hiker and Climber. Hang Glider jewels must be completed in order.  Completion of Handbooks are
Awarded accordingly:








ADVANCEMENT
First & Second Graders will advance into Hiker after completion of the Hang Glider Handbook. And
Second Graders will advance into Climber after completion of the Hiker Handbook. If a clubber completes
both Handbook & Review requirements before the end of the club year, there is a Workbook available for
each Handbook level. Completion of Workbooks will earn the clubber a Pin Award to be displayed on
his/her Review Patch.
