Rotary District 7980 RYLA Training Weekend for May 2018

District 7980 RYLA is a three day event held at Camp Hazen in Chester Connecticut. The facilitators and Directors are all high school students. The RYLA chairs are Rotaractors. It works great because of the effort and in particular the training of the student facilitators.

During Training weekend the facilitators present as if they were at RYLA
so that the other facilitators can comment and help

Here's Kristen and Hailey the co-chairs talking with Justin a Rotarian advisor

Some of the activities are carried out by a single facilitator. Here
is a practice run.

One of the activities is Community Building and here's the facilitator chairs for that activity
enlisting the help of the other facilitators

Some of the activities require quite a bit of thought about how to do them properly
Training weekend is the culmination of about 6 months of preparation by the Chairs,
Directors and the facilitators

They are expecting about 80 participants so 16 facilitators, two student directors and two RYLA chairs are involved
