WINTER GARDEN

+ Rotary Club of Winter Garden

The Rotary Club of Winter Garden recently sponsored several high-school students to attend the Camp RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) program.

In addition to standard camp activities such as canoeing, archery and campfires, Camp RYLA emphasizes leadership programs such as public speaking skills, the seven habits of highly effective teens and a team-building ropes course. The intended result is for the students return to their schools and communities motivated to take on leadership roles and to find ways to serve. 

The students gave a group presentation to the club to offer their thanks for the sponsorship and to highlight some of the activities they enjoyed at camp. 

The club also is sending four volunteers to assist with Matthew’s Hope Ministries on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Volunteers are asked to serve from 9:20 to 11:30 a.m. — just prior to the Rotary lunch. Those interested can sign up and pick up a volunteer application at a Tuesday Rotary meeting or contact Becky Farrant or Tom Mikels with any questions.
