The students expressed heartfelt appreciation for the opportunity to participate in the life-changing Leadership Weekend Camp, which featured a variety of team- and trust-building activities, including an exhilarating ropes course.
They shared that the experience helped them build new friendships and gain a deeper appreciation for family, friends, and community. Among their key takeaways were the importance of having a positive attitude, approaching challenges with gratitude (“we don’t have to — we get to”), being authentic, and recognizing that “we can survive without a phone for a weekend.” They also emphasized the value of listening to and understanding other people’s perspectives.
We congratulate our REGL students for completing this inspiring leadership journey and thank them for demonstrating Rotary’s motto of Service Above Self through their enthusiasm, teamwork, and commitment to personal growth.
