ROTARY LUNCHEON: RYLA

RYLA and the entire Youth Services focus of our ​C​lub is expanding. This year we had 140 campers ​from 38 high schools across the District, ​22 graduates at RYLA​, 30 counselors, and 10 staff.​ Six of our members were in leadership roles with RYLA! And this represents the entry point for what Youth Services ​wants​ to ​do. We have doubled the number of Interactors​ our Club supports and the clubs are incredibly energized. On May 8, the Club will have an opportunity to hear from Lynn Luckow, District 5150 RYLA Director, and participants in RYLA 2018 as well as understand more about the focus of Youth Services​ going forward​.

The Rotary Youth Leadership Awards program, RYLA, is now in its 34th year. Started by the Rotary Club of San Francisco as Camp Enterprise, RYLA is now a district-wide program offering a three-day leadership experience each spring to over 100 high school students. In the last four years, the RYLA program has added new components to the program. The basic focus of RYLA’s three days of camp is to guide the campers in developing principles of citizenship, leadership, and community service through an interactive series of activities. RYLA now has youth staff that assists in delivering the program. Beyond the three-day camp, RYLA offers a year round program where RYLA graduates and continue develop leadership skills through monthly activities throughout the year.
