The Greensburg Rotary Club invites high school juniors and seniors to apply for the 2023
Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) camp. The camp, located at Bradford Woods near
Mooresville, IN, is set for Friday, October 20 through Sunday, October 22. The deadline to
apply is September 11.
“The RYLA program gives area high school students a chance to learn and strengthen
leadership skills, experience personal growth, and learn about Rotary’s motto of “Service
Above Self,” said Jenni Hanna, Greensburg Rotary’s RYLA coordinator. “Students from
across Rotary’s Southern Indiana District 6580 attend the camp, as well as any exchange
students who might be staying with families in our district.”
Most of the RYLA activities happen in an outdoor camp setting. Under the guidance of
trained facilitators at Bradford Woods, RYLA participants gain valuable leadership skills
through a variety of “learn by doing” adventures. Aside from leadership activities, the camp
also sponsors a student dance, and attendees enjoy staying in modern cabins.
Each year, more than 9,000 young people are sponsored in RYLA programs by Rotary
Clubs in over 25 countries. Rotarians provide the RYLA program free to all participating
students.
Greensburg Rotary plans to sponsor three high school students to attend the camp.
Interested juniors or seniors should email Jenni Hanna at jhanna@dccfound.org for more
information or an application. Application deadline is September 11.
