RYLA began in Southeast Asia in the 1970 s and spread rapidly around the world. Georgia Rotary District 6920 adopted the program in 1989, initially inviting stu dents from all three Georgia Rotary Districts. The program grew so fast that it had to be scaled down to include students from Georgia 6920 only. RYLA is designed for high school juniors and seniors, although some districts include other age groups. Those chosen to attend the all-expense paid seminar have a unique opportunity to discuss leadership skills, attend leadership classes, and practice leadership skills with state and national busi ness leaders in a small, per sonalized environment.
