RYLA Student Leader Application 2024
July 29-August 2, 2024 @ Redwood Glen Camp & Conference Center, Scotts Valley, CA

Welcome!  We are delighted you are interested in our 38th Annual Rotary Youth Leadership Academy Camp! The RYLA camp is five days of leadership development (no leadership experience required) and personal growth. It's also about making friends and having fun, from splashing at the pool, going for a hike, or roasting marshmallows over the campfire! Students who've participated in RYLA in the past rate it as one of the most transformative and best experiences of their lives.

You qualify to participate if you are currently a high school freshman, sophomore, or junior living in Marin, San Francisco, or San Mateo counties and will be an incoming sophomore, junior, or senior in August 2024.  

RYLA Camp is FREE! Your $700 Camp tuition is paid by local Rotarians who believe in you and youth empowerment.  Transportation is provided from your county to Camp early on the morning of Monday, July 29 and from Camp back to your county mid-afternoon on Friday, August 2.  You must be able to attend all five days. There is no partial attendance.  

Once you begin this application, please be prepared to complete it.  You will not be able to save your work and come back to it at a later time.  Note all items with a red asterisk are required.  When finished, REMEMBER TO CLICK THE SUBMIT BUTTON at the end of the application.  Email us at hello@RYLA.camp if you have any questions prior to completing this Application.  We encourage you to apply early, given we begin sending acceptance notifications months in advance of Camp. And as soon as the Camp is at capacity, we won't be able to accept more applications.  

Best wishes! The RYLA 2024 Team
