2027 Registration Update
The student registration fee for Iowa RYLA 2027 will be $580 per student. This adjustment reflects rising conference material and operating costs while allowing us to continue delivering the exceptional leadership experience our students deserve.
We recognize that sponsoring a student is an important investment for Rotary clubs. The RYLA Board remains committed to pursuing sponsorships and philanthropic support to help keep the program accessible to as many young leaders as possible.
Why RYLA Matters
RYLA is more than a weeklong leadership conference — it's an investment in the future of our communities and Rotary itself. Students leave with greater confidence, stronger leadership skills, lasting friendships, and a deeper understanding of Service Above Self. Many alumni carry those lessons into their careers, communities, and even future Rotary membership.
Every student sponsored represents an opportunity to change a life.
Thank you to the Rotary clubs and Rotarians throughout District 6000 who continue to make this life-changing experience possible. Together, we're developing tomorrow's leaders and inspiring the next generation of Rotarians!
We hope to see you on October 22!
