RYPEN 2023

Rotary Youth Program of Enrichment (RYPEN)

RYPEN is a residential weekend-long program delivering leadership training for 14 - 16 years olds (Grades 9 - 11). Over the course of the program we focus on building Resilience, Communication, Teamwork, Responsibility of Self, Habit Formation, Community Advocacy, Trust and Mindfulness Skills.

RYPEN is an incredibly valuable and unique experience for the participants which allows them to engage with like-minded people, discover their values and grow their communication and leadership skills, all whilst having fun!

We’re incredibly proud of the RYPEN Program. We genuinely believe in what we do and we’ve seen firsthand the impact of the outcomes we achieve. Whilst we could talk about the benefits of the program all day, we thought it might be more impactful to hear from one of our past participants.

The following heart-felt words from Brooke, a past participant of the program, sum up RYPEN very nicely -

“… I have found confidence in myself that I never thought I had. I recommend this camp to every teenager because it shows you a different perspective on how you communicate with people. The activities have been very challenging and I pushed myself in ways I didn’t even realise I could… ”

If you know a young person aged 14-16 who has a high amount of potential across a range of areas and just needs to be shown that they can be exceptional, why not recommend they attend RYPEN – it might just change their life.
