Guidelines for Club Camp RYLA Chairpersons
  1. Camp RYLA Club Reservation Forms. Each student that you sponsor will cost your club $600 plus $70 for those clubs participating in the greater Sacramento bus transportation. Send the registration fee, along with the club reservation form, to the name and address listed on the reservation form. The deadline is December 31.

    The RYLA District Committee needs to have your registration fee to pay certain expenses that occur before camp. More importantly, this will secure your club's student reservation(s). Please remember that the student(s) must be entering their senior year in high school next fall.
     

  2. Contact the local High School administrators/counselors and ask for a list of potential students (usually more than you will send). You may want to select the students from your local Interact Club. These students should be completing their junior year in high school, have good character, a reasonable scholastic record and be able to commit themselves to attend the entire week long program. Children of Rotarians are eligible.
     

  3. Appoint a committee of Rotarians to interview and select candidates. Interviews are good learning experiences for students and Rotarians. A sample RYLA interview form is also available on this website.
     

  4. The Rotary Club is responsible for processing and sending all registration forms to the students that you select. Student packets are available on this web site.
     

  5. Be sure your candidate understands he/she is sponsored by your Rotary Club. Supply them with the name, address, and phone number of your local Camp RYLA Chairperson so when questions arise there is a source of local help.
     

  6. Please go through the registration form with your selected student(s) and make sure they return the forms directly to you by April 1 and not the school!!

    After review by the club, the Camper Registration Form, Camper/Parent Statement and Doctor's Certificate must be forwarded to your District Camp Registrar:

        DISTRICT 5180:
      Sallie Parkins
      2045 Empire Mine Circle
      Gold River, CA 95670

        DISTRICT 5190:
      Steve Singer
      PO Box 88
      Yerington, NV 89447

    NO LATER THAN APRIL 15, 2010.
    Please make sure the package is complete and all forms signed before sending them in. Incomplete student packages will be put on hold and not officially registered until all forms have been received.
     
  7. REMEMBER: It is your club's responsibility to provide transportation to and from Camp for your student(s). All students must arrive at Camp between 12:00pm and 12:30pm on the first day and be picked up shortly after 12:30pm on the last day.
