Youth Leadership. An early start thanks to Rotary!
During the Rotary Program of Youth Enrichment (RYPEN) young people develop increased motivation, improved life skills, better self image, pride in themselves and an understanding of setting and achieving goals. In this episode of Rotary Matters we meet Beau Seale from Empire Bay who not only attended RYPEN 2018 in the Blue Mountains near Sydney but went on to spend 2019 as a Rotary Youth Exchange student, in Austria with a host family, meeting other young Rotarians and even cycling 500 km in five days from Lake Constance back to Vorarlberg in Austria! Amanda Barnes local RYPEN coordinator and International Service Director for Rotary District 9685 tells us how RYPEN is structured, the application process and the benefits. She also explains the emergence of Rotary E-Clubs and reasons for their popularity. www.rotarydistrict9685.org.au Here is an edited version of the program
