Milpitas Rotary Scoops Ice Cream For A Cause

Youth Awards honored Rotary Intact officers and others.

About a dozen Milpitas Rotarians and friends were on hand to serve 50 gallons of ice cream in 10 different flavors with all the toppings to around 225 area high school juniors and seniors, some of whom are Rotary Interact officers and members plus rotary officials, volunteers, and RYLA staff.

This years' camp RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) was held Mid-June at Camp Campbell in the Santa Cruz Mountains with a BBQ dinner served on Thursday, June 21, featuring Tri-Tip beef, grilled chicken, chili, salad, corn cobs, and garlic bread, plus ice cream.  

RYLA aims to:

  • Demonstrate Rotary's respect and concern for youth;
  • Provide an effective training experience for selected youth and potential leaders;
  • Encourage leadership of youth by youth; and
  • Recognize publicly young people who are rendering service to their communities.
  • And our students were really pumped up this year!
