Are you 18 to 24 years of age and ready to make your future even brighter?
If you are, or have been, a leader at school, work or in your community, then you must apply for a 2019 Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA) today! RYLA is a residential high-energy programme to develop young leaders to be held at the Silverstream Retreat, Hutt Valley, 23-27 January.
“RYLA will take you on a journey of teamwork and personal growth, and will challenge your limits. It’s one of the best ways you can spend a week if there is something, anything, that you want to achieve in life. OR if, like I was, you’re feeling somewhat directionless. The programme is diverse, with something for everyone. You’ll work within teams, share with those around you, listen to a range of truly inspirational speakers, and take part in all manner of dynamic activities. I can almost guarantee you will come out of it with friends and cheerleaders who will be with you for life.” - Tom Hutton, 2018 RYLA representative
