At the September 1st Club meeting, members were entertained by Rotary Youth Leadership Award participants Morgan Murdick and Chris Renaud, each of whom recounted their visit to the RYLA camp at Clear Lake Manitoba in August with a sense of excitement.

After travelling to Winnipeg both boys took a van from there to Clear Lake.
They talked of the friendships they developed before they even arrived at camp and described how after arrival, they had icebreaker games to get to know each other.

Each day, they would hold a sharing circle where they would discuss different aspects of leadership. Evenings also found them undertaking different aspects of the “Amazing Race”.
During the week, they heard from guest speakers and both commented on the diehard environmentalist who spoke to them with real passion.
Morgan Murdick also let it be known that there were only 6 boys and the rest of the participants were girls...so anyone looking for a “summer romance” was in heaven!
