Rotary Youth Leadership Academy (RYLA) is a leadership experience organized by Rotary International District 7670 where students develop their skills as leaders while having fun and making connections. During the three-day and three-night leadership event, high school students will experience a dynamic program that helps them realize their potential as leaders. One of the most rewarding aspects of RYLA is that students form lasting friendships with like-minded peers.
The Rotary Club of Tryon will sponsor your participation, so RYLA is FREE.
Learning and team building takes place through group activities, including a Ropes Course, Alpine Tower, and leadership development exercises. Professional speakers will inspire and explore how to unlock students' leadership potential, and the spirit of "Service Above Self" will develop through multiple peer-to-peer experiences.
There are a few key characteristics of the type of student that should attend RYLA: leadership potential, open-mindedness, well-behaved, be a team-player, willing to work hard and learn new skills.
