I am sad to announce that we have to cancel RYLA 2020 due to the pandemic.
Attached are two letters. The first is to Rotarians explaining the decision and to prepare for RYLA 2021.
We are looking to expand RYLA to 192 campers from 144, as well as, open RYLA to both sophomores and juniors in high school. The letter also announces two new RYLA co-directors that will be joining me officially for 2021. They are both staff members with over 10 years of RYLA experience and Rotarians with our New Voices Club. In anticipation of cost increases, we also will potentially be increasing the cost per student by $25.00 for RYLA 2021.
The second letter is the communication that is being sent to students that have been registered this year.
We held a virtual RYLA for our staff over the past week and I am pleased to say that our RYLA community is active and helping to create positive change in this world even in the midst of the pandemic.
The RYLA staff will be updating the www.ryla7780.org website with information over the next few weeks as we book RYLA 2021. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
Yours In Service,
Phil
