The Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (also known as RYLA) will be held from June 23-25, 2022 at Fitchburg State College with over 200 students from across Central Massachusetts. Each year, the Rotary Club of Bedford selects and sponsors a group of students with excellent potential for leadership and service for attendance.

RYLA is a transformational experience designed to develop and emphasize leadership skills, citizenship and community service. The 3-day  conference is filled with group activities focused on listening and communicating, time management, team building, and public speaking. Your teen will build connections, work collaboratively with others, and emerge as a change agent who can motivate and inspire others to make a positive difference in society.
