WOOOOO HOOOOO! Completed RYLA Applications are coming in! In the lead with the most applications EVER seen before from any club is Pierre/Ft. Pierre (I didn't think anyone could top Watertown from last year!!!), and we have a new club on board with student applications - Sioux Falls Rotary South!
Great Plains RYLA is a one-of-a-kind leadership development camp designed to help high school sophomores and juniors grow as leaders, explore the value of service, and build lifelong connections with other students across Rotary Districts 5630 and 5610. This year's RYLA will take place July 7-11, 2025, at Maranatha Camp in Maxwell, Nebraska. Go to GreatPlainsRYLA.org.
This is a reminder to reach out to your local schools to set up a time to meet with students and promote this incredible opportunity. Personal conversations with students and educators are one of the best ways to encourage strong participation from your community! Another great resource is your club's past RYLA students. They are the connector between current students and your Rotary Club!
Student applications close March 31, 2025.
If you have ANY questions, please reach out to me, Rene Sorenson, your RYLA District 5610 Chair, reneinak@gmail.com.
