RYLA

Rotary Youth Leadership Awards
Lake Geneva and Williams Bay was the sight for this years RYLA program for high school students.
I think that this years students that attended were the best I have seen. The weather was good on Friday and Saturday
but Sunday brought the rain. The program goes on rain or shine. The food was good and plentiful.
On a sad note PDG Chuck and Susie Johnson presented their last "reality store" this year. The store will continue
next year under the RYLA leadership team.
If you like youth programs, you will LOVE RYLA. It is so cool to see kids that have never met and for the most part
have very little in common come together as a team, you will be amazed and proud of what this program does for kids.
If you saw any thing in the news about the kids lost in the cave, you will see that the two girls have RYLA T shirts on.
They were not on a RYLA camp!
One councilor, Liz Zienty was part of the kids team and chose to do whatever the kids did, she did it all!
Commitment, Sharing, and Dedication is what makes her work and she has been a member for less than a year! You go girl!
I want to thank all of the committee that works so hard on this terrific program. Thanks goes as well to the Clubs that
support the program. Keep up the good work. RORARY SHARES
