Dear Fellow Rotarians and Friends of Rotary
I hope this email finds you well.
Applications for the RYPEN (Rotary Youth Program of Enrichment) camp in May are open now!
If you know someone who is 14-17 years of age who is
- Wanting an opportunity to develop and challenge themselves
- Looking to develop their self-esteem and confidence
- Interested in developing skills including leadership, teamwork, communication, goal setting and problem solving
- Wanting to build a network of young people and to make new friends
- Excited for a weekend of fun
Then we'd love to have them attend the RYPEN camp from 3rd - 5th May 2024.
RYPEN depends on Rotary Clubs to sponsor participants, and the more participants we get the better the camp will be. We would love to welcome your applicant to the camp.
RYPEN is at its best when we have a balance of genders, ages, country and city participants, so please consider who in your community can benefit from a RYPEN experience. If your club sponsors an Interact club, this can be a great source of participants.
We've got an exciting and challenging program lined up for the weekend, so if you know of someone who would like to attend please get your applications as soon as possible.
An application form is attached to this email. Please send applications to rypen@rotarywa.au The camp costs $340 per attendee and your club will be invoiced later for the camp.
Applications close 14th April 2024. All applications MUST be received by the closing date. There are a maximum of 45 places available on RYPEN, and they are allocated on a first come, first served basis.
If you have any questions or would like further information, please don't hesitate to let us know. You can email program chair Roy Philbin at rypen@rotarywa.au or call 0418 948 847.
Yours in Service,
Ian Ball
