5th Annual Rotary Youth Leadership (RYLA) Conference
May 16-18, 2008
Camp Manito-Wish
Boulder Junction, WI
Rotary Clubs of District 6250, it’s time to begin planning for the 5th annual Rotary Youth Leadership (RYLA) Conference. The 2008 conference will be held at Camp Manito-wish YMCA in Boulder Junction on May 16 through May 18.
This Club Packet is designed to give you information about the conference and provide you with some useful tools for the recruitment and selection process.
The RYLA program is very demanding, so please interview each candidate thoroughly in an effort to select the best prepared young leader. The selection of good conferees is an essential element in the over all success of the RYLA program. Consider sending the enclosed Nomination Form to your local high school principals, guidance counselors, and advisors of FFA, FBLA, FCCLA, Skills USA, DECA, NHS, Student Council and other student organizations. These school leaders can assist with recruitment of students who could transfer the leadership skills and knowledge they gain at RYLA to their respective organizations.
