RYLA

Ryla is a student leadership awards camp. Youth in grades 10-12 come from all over District 5040 for a weekend full of team building games, events and workshops to expand their leadership potential. This year’s theme was “The Power of One”. Students learned the importance of how one person can change the world if they want to. The different workshops showed them that they are capable of what ever they set their minds to and to let go of the parts of the past holding them back. The super supportive staff made the weekend amazing and inspirational. Having local difference makers close to the students’ own ages speaking was unbelievable. All that they have done and they haven’t even graduated high school yet! One person CAN change the world.

This year’s RYLA participants from McMath were as follows: Erin Lee, Ron Wan, Betty Shi, and Shevaun Ensor-Harrison.

Many thanks to the Rotary Club of Steveston for financially supporting the McMath delegates with the registration costs to attend this conference.
