Please be advised that not all registered volunteers may be chosen to attend RYLA. There are limited spaces. The volunteer selections are based on a sufficient number of experienced counselors with the addition of new volunteers to ensure the experience grows for all. You will be contacted early February regarding placement. We appreciate your patience but we are unable to make final selections until we know the final count of students and the gender ratio within that count. Thank you for considering us as a lifetime experience you are certain to enjoy.

Please note, if selected to attend, a background check will be necessary. You will be sent a form and submission instructions upon your selection.
