Our Socorro Rotary Chapter has sponsored two students' attendance of RYLA Camp this summer. Current Juniors (Class of 2024) are eligible to attend, including students graduating early next year. We have advertised this to the students but have not had any students ask to attend. This is an all expenses paid leadership camp opportunity. If you would like your child to participate in this camp, please contact Frances Fuller at 575-838-2543 or ffuller@socorroschools.org so she can connect you with Rotary to get the student registered. Rotary will assist with transportation to the camp. Camp info is below. Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) Camp **2023 Camp Dates** Boys' Camp: Sunday, July 9th - Saturday, July 15th Girls' Camp: Saturday, July 15th - Friday, July 21st Manzano Mountain Retreat 210A Los Pinetos Torreon, NM 87061 United States Camp Website: https://rotary5520.org/page/rotary-youth-leadership-award Video Link of previous camp session: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrnnrUjlOIQ RYLA is the “outreach arm” of Rotary involvement in our community. The Boys RYLA Camp (July 9-15th 2023) and the Girls RYLA Camp (July 15-21, 2023) are aimed toward empowering our youth before their senior high school year through exposure to experts in a variety of fields at a one-week leadership camp held at the beautiful Manzano Mountain Retreat. These experts contribute their time and expertise to our campers’ growth and development at this vulnerable stage of maturity. Examples of speakers in the past have included astronauts, judges, lawyers, physicians, and business owners. Speakers offer the tools and support that campers will be able to develop and rely upon for the rest of their lives. At this same time, experienced and supportive Counselors (2 Counselors per 7 to 10 campers in a cabin) spend the entire week with campers to support and guide campers’ decisions in alliance with the 4-Way Test - the cornerstone of Rotary. Projects are shared including how to bring out the best natural skills of each camper into focus. Many of our alumni have earmarked RYLA as being the best thing in their memories, exposing them to choices of careers, cooperation with others, forging of friendships and support that they would never be able to find anywhere else in their lives. Because the principles of Rotary underlie RYLA Camp activities and projects, campers are exposed to the principles and purposes of Rotary, and many choose to be Rotarians later in their lives.
