RYPEN - TALIA CUZENS

Robert Cuzens introduced his granddaughter, Talia, 16 years old, who attends Clarendon College in Ballarat.  Talia said her Grandfather invited her to tell us about her experience in attending RYPEN, (a Rotary Youth Program of Enrichment) at Creswick.  Talia said she was very nervous at first because she did not know anyone.  But before long she said she felt more confident, everyone was friendly, and tolerant.  Many activities involved team work, e.g.  the rope course and personality test, but Talia said, for her, the most terrifying experience was singing, but even that was OK in the end.   She said it was a fantastic experience and she thanked the Rotary Club for their financial support.
