What do the RYLARIAN’S take home with them? The programme aims to help them to:

- Learn from community leaders, inspirational speakers, and peer mentors
- Unlock your potential to turn motivation into action
- Have fun and form lasting friendships
- Build on the existing leadership of participants
- Encourage participants to further develop their own skills, talents and abilities, and
- Remind participants of their responsibility to their communities and to the world.
Applications will open on the 1st September 2019. For ease of management this year fees will be invoiced from the District 9710 Treasurer to participating Clubs and cover accommodation, all meals and programme expenses. The full registration fee is $910. The Committee has decided to drop the early Bird reduced fee inducement this year to cover the cost of the extra nights accommodation.
