What is RYLA??

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is working with youth in leadership development. RYLA is an intensive training program for community youth leaders. Young people attending school (high school juniors) in District 5910, chosen for their leadership potential, attend an all-expense-paid weekend camp organized and run by Rotarians with records of achievement.

  • A weekend totally excluded from all distractions.
  • A weekend where high school juniors interact with experts, news reporters, and journalists about current issues facing future leaders.
  • A weekend where high school juniors meet prominent professionals with real success stories - one-on-one.
  • A weekend where high school juniors will work through a set of challenges and stretch thier leadership skills to new heights, such as walking a tight rope or crossing a 12 foot obstacle.
  • A weekend where high school juniors will cheer some, cry some, lead some, learn some, and follow some.
  • RYLA is a lifetime of memories!
