Inverness winners of the 2008 Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) are Emily Dent, Karen Munro and Helen Cromarty (Culloden Academy) and James McPhee (Inverness High School).
Every year Rotary Clubs across Great Britain and Ireland sponsor young people aged between 14 and 30 to attend RYLA courses where they undergo an intensive training programme in leadership development and team working. The courses are a blend of physical outdoor activity and more intellectual challenges of competitions, teambuilding and problem solving, with a series of inspirational talks from leaders and managers who have established track records in business and sporting achievement. Individuals are chosen from candidates identified by their schools as most likely to benefit from this unique learning experience and develop into the leaders of tomorrow.
Emily, Karen and James were sponsored by The Rotary Club of Inverness and they attended a recent lunch time meeting where they gave very polished and confident talks on their experiences at camps held in July. Helen was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Loch Ness.
