<p>Since you are involved with Interact at Moorestown, you should see if you can participate in RYLA next summer. The leadership experience will be very good for you.</p>

<p>what is ryla</p>

5

<p>I believe it stands for Rotary Youth Leadership Academy (or Award, depending on who you ask :slight_smile: )</p>

<p>You should speak about it with the person who is your Interact adviser . Interact is the HS arm of the Rotary Club. I believe Moorestown is part of Rotary District 7500. You can Google it or look it up on FB too.</p>
