The MRV Rotary will be sending a student to Rotary Youth Leadership Academy (RYLA) for the first time in many years thanks to Rosemarie White. "We only had the one applicant, but this is the first student I can ever remember our club sending to RYLA! We are making progress. RYLA will be held the weekend of June 24-26 at Northern Vermont University in Lyndon," said Rosemarie.
Rotary Youth Leadership Academy (RYLA) is for High School sophomores (ages 15 – 16). The students learn by experience and actions. They learn about personality traits and how to bring out everyone's talents. They learn about their own traits and talents, which many are surprised that they have. Oh, and they have FUN while doing this! We will have a service project during the weekend where they can personally make a difference for someone that they do not know.
