Rotary Abuse/Harassment Release –

The
Abuse/Harassment background check is required for ALL SC’s and JC’s after
January 1 of every year you serve as a counselor (yes, Rotary Policy states
that we must run the checks afresh each year). After January 1, click here for details
about the required background check release form.
For New SC Applicants – Introduction
Thank you
for your interest in becoming a part of the RYLA team! This past year’s RYLA
was a great success and we are looking for people who are willing and able to
carry on this tradition of excellence. More important, RYLA needs people who
are ready to facilitate the “RYLA magic” for another year of young adults!
The
SC Approval process begins with the completion of this application. You must:
·
Be a Rotarian in good standing.
·
Complete the Web-based application.
·
Give your approval for a background check (part of the Rotary
International Abuse and Harassment Protection Policy).
·
Attend the training session (dates to be announced).
The two
major needs for Senior Counselors are to enable young adults to continue their
leadership development and to ensure the fulfillment of the goals for the RYLA
conferees and Young RYLA campers. To this end, RYLA and YRYLA will each hold a
mandatory Counselor Training session (dates to be announced), located at the Boys & Girls club in
Fort Collins CO. You must attend this training in order to be an SC at RYLA
or YRYLA.
We conduct
these two RYLA events:
§
The RYLA conference at the YMCA Camp in
§
Young RYLA camp in late July in Larkspur, CO for applicants who have
just finished seventh grade.
If you wish
to be considered for either RYLA or YRYLA, or if you wish apply to only one of
the two, please mention that in your application.
Thank you, and we appreciate your interest and involvement in
RYLA!
