Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is all about Rotarians, professionals in your local community, working with youth to develop our future leaders. It is an intensive training/experiential program for school students in their pivotal high school years, who are chosen for their proven or potential leadership abilities. Students participate in an all-expense paid retreat. The camp is run by Rotary members and RYLA Alumni. Student attendance is sponsored by Rotary Clubs from throughout the district, which means attendance is free for qualified high school students. Students are joined by talented young people from surrounding communities. RYLA provides a memorable opportunity to learn, grow, have fun, make new friends, and gain a new and improved focus.
