From Thurs. 4/28/22 through Sun. afternoon 5/1/22, Westlake Sunrise Rotary sponsored Jarrett Frey, a student here in the Conejo Valley. He learned many things at RYLA: How to take charge, how to inspire people, connect with teammates, and how to bring out the best in them. Because of the education he received in leadership, a winning attitude, perseverance, and ethics, he will be seeking a more active role in his Interact Club and spread his knowledge about how to improve both leadership and character. He wrote to WLV Sunrise President Jim Wisdom the following: “ It is frightening to think that without your support, I would not have experienced this life-changing opportunity.”
WLV Sunrise President attended the RYLA opening ceremonies on Thursday 4/28/22, and his daughter Kelsey Wisdom ( former RYLA student and now a RYLA Counselor) attended the entire event as a Counselor. RYLA Chair Darrin Arrasmith and his staff continue to deliver a top-notch experience for the youth here in the Conejo Valley. And this was the first in-person RYLA event in three years. It felt great to be back in person!
