There aren't words on this earth
to describe what RYLA means to me! I remember crying for two days after
I left the camp because I missed everybody so much. RYLA is definitely
one of the greatest blessings I've ever had. It completely changed my
life and taught me more about life in three days than I'd learned in
sixteen years. ... You won't regret it!!

The experiences I have had with
this unique leadership environment have been life-changing. I can
honestly say that I learned more in one weekend at RYLA than I would
have learned spending weeks or months somewhere else. I learned that to
be a leader includes being a follower. Being a listener. Being a
volunteer. ... I know, without a doubt, that I would not be the person
and leader I am today if it had not been for RYLA.

I urge people to become more familiar with camp RYLA
and what it is. In a world of clichés, we hear
the phrase "life-changing experience" far too often. RYLA is the real
deal. My life has been significantly altered by this amazing program,
and I aspire to share these emotions with other students and let them in
on our little secret we affectionately call "camp RYLA".

RYLA, a wonderful place ... The people there made me
feel like I could do anything ... I became a different person. I am a
leader. I will change the world.

RYLA gave me the encouragement I needed as leader ...
It gave me the tools I needed to succeed. Shortly after attending, I
applied and was accepted to New York University. I graduated with a 3.25
GPA in Music, and am now working for CNN. Not too bad for a girl from
the small town of Marshall, TX! I come back every year (For SEVEN years
now!), as a counselor, hoping to give future generations of leaders the
kind of tools and skills that will help them to achieve even greater
heights than those they are already dreaming. Can't wait to see YOU this
year! P.H. |

I'm ... from Brazil and I was an exchange student in
03-04, and I had the precious experience of being a camper. I'm
glad that I made the choice to go to RYLA, it was an amazing experience
... in RYLA, anyone can be a leader! I mean, everybody has a leadership
inside and you the people from RYLA, help us to show how we can be
leaders ... RYLA really made my life better.

I had a great experience at RYLA. It has taught me
self-confidence. My teachers were so impressed. I had so much fun
at RYLA that I want to go again. T. |

My experience with the RYLA Camp changed my life. My
parents, friends,
and teachers could tell a difference in me. I learned about myself
and what I could do when I surrendered my attitude, time, need to be in
charge, and motives for self gain to the needs of the group. I grew
closer to my fellow campers than many of the people I had known my whole
life. I think RYLA is the single best weekend I have ever spent in
my entire life! ... you just have to go experience it for
yourself!
