Cell Phone Use Policies

Each club may choose as many RYLA Alternates as they deem necessary not to exceed the maximum number of spaces reserved. The Club RYLA Chair must instruct all RYLA Alternates to register at www.RYLA5240.org/Altnernates at the same time the chosen students are instructed to do so. It is up to each Club RYLA Chair to assign an alternate number to each RYLA Alternate in order to determine the order that the spaces will be offered in the event of a cancellation. (i.e. Alternate #1, #2, #3, etc.). Club RYLA Chairs will be able to confirm that all Alternates have registered and chosen the correct order on-line under Club Chair Center. All students who are chosen as an Alternate must agree to the following:

1. Register themselves by the required due date;
2. Remain on standby until 10 Days prior to the event;
3. Give up their status as an Alternate if they know they cannot attend as soon as the decision is made but at least 10 days prior to the event;
4. Complete all Parental Consent Forms by the required due dates;
5. Read, understand and acknowledge Conditions of Registration & Attendance;

Selecting an Alternate

Any Student who cancel their commitment to RYLA prior to cancellation deadline (10 days prior to the event), must notify their RYLA Club Chair directly via phone or e-mail AND send a memo stating the same to admin@RYLA5240.org. The RYLA Club Chair's contact information is available on-line and on the student's registration confirmation.

RYLA Staff will begin contacting Alternates in the order designated in their registration until the available space is taken. RYLA staff will remove the "Dropped Student" from the on-line list and replace it with RYLA Alternate who has confirmed that they can/will attend. The RYLA Club Chair will be able to see the list of last names for their respective club on-line at Registered Students.

If no Alternates are available to attend, RYLA Staff will initiate procedures for Reserved Space Trading.
