From June 30 to July 3, over 50 student participants from around our district came together as strangers and left as friends and future leaders. These students, from our largest cities to our smaller towns, made our district proud. It was an exceptional group of young people. They demonstrated enthusiasm, respect, caring and fellowship as they participated in the RYLA program presented by the Rotaract Club of Leadership and Service.
The participants learned how to work as a team and the importance of service above self. These are lessons that will last a lifetime. Thank you to all the Rotary clubs who made the effort to select the participants and to support them financially. Investment in our youth is one of the best investments your club will ever make.
