Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA)

The Rotary Club of Prince Albert invites applications from local students to attend an all expense paid camp which focuses on Leadership, developmental topics of interest to today's youth along with lots of recreational activity.
Approximately 50 students will be selected from Rotary District 5550 to attend each of two camps in the month of August: 1) Basic RYLA for ages 12-14 years; and 2) Advanced RYLA for ages 15-18 years.
The camp is held at the Anglican Church Camp, Clear Lake Manitoba (Riding Mountain National Park) and uses a "hands on"and "learn by doing" approach to leadership, learning and personal development. Camp RYLA is interactive and will provide a memorable opportunity to learn, grow as an individual, have fun and make new friends in the process.
For more information and/or applications concerning this Rotary-sponsored leadership opportunity, log on to www.rotary.org and follow the link to Youth Programs/RYLA. Applications to attend either of these two camps should be submitted to the school office by May 20, 2011.
