The Rotary Youth Leadership Awards Conference, aka RYLA, is a 3 day/ two night conference where sophomore high school students participate in a variety of interactive sessions. The activities are designed to help students to stretch and grow. This year's RYLA is from June 27 - 29 and takes place at Fitchburg State University.
The program includes a variety of challenges and enriching sessions which allow students to learn about themselves and others. Students engage with small and large groups in a program created by student input.
“life-changing”
“amazing”
“very cool”
… are all things that previous students have said about RYLA.
"The Westborough Rotary Club sponsors ten students every year to attend RYLA," states Reina Rago, President of the Club and its RYLA Chair.
"This is one of the best initiatives our club is involved in. To watch these students grow and change over the course of three days is both inspiring and incredible!"
