It’s getting closer to RYLA time! With all the talk this month about “lucky” things and “being lucky” we thought we’d share why we think anyone who goes to RYLA is the luckiest of all for the many positives they gain from the experience:

• Personal Development
• Meeting Other Like-Minded People
• Learning from Others
• Confidence Boost
• Teamwork and Collaboration
• Looks good on Applications and Resumes
• Inspiration to Reach Future Goals
• Opportunities to Challenge Yourself
• Grow Your Impact and Positive Influence on Others

This is just a small sample of the many benefits of attending RYLA – and this goes for both students and staff. We all gain something from the time we spend together each summer. And it’s not just us – You and Your Clubs benefit as well. Do you want to grow leaders for your schools and communities? Send a student to RYLA. Do you want to develop future Rotary members to join your clubs and engage in service? Send a student to RYLA. Do you want to experience the energy and passion that goes into growing your students into strong leaders? Come visit RYLA for yourself!
