2021 Virtual RYLA

RYLA is going virtual! As much as we wish we could see you all at Camp Upham Woods this year, we're playing it safe as we make it through the pandemic.

Participants will attend sessions virtually over two days in May, 2021:

May 16th, 2:00-5:00pm
May 17th, 6:00-8:00pm

How to get your students registered for RYLA

  1. Fill out the “Club Registration Form” to tell us how many students you’re sending. (more details are in the attached Rotary Tool Kit for Student Selection document)
  2. Have all students along with their parents/guardians fill out the “Student Registration Form” (this link is only to be given to students that your club sponsors to go to RYLA, more details are given in the attached RYLA Registration Process document)
  3. After the forms are completed (both the Club form as well as the Student form for each student you sponsor), the District 6250 office will send an invoice for payment
  4. The registration deadline is April 15, 2021.
