Rotary hears about RYLA from Kyle Basten

It was great to hear about Kyle Basten's experience at RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) this year at Wartburg College in Waverly. This is the first year of District 6000 (our Rotary District in Southern Iowa) joining with District 5970 in Northern Iowa to sponsor a week-long experience for young people.

It was great to hear Kyle's impressions and experiences. He said that he hoped to return as a councilor next year.


Sue Basten and Kyle Basten make a sandwich of Club President, Becky Patterson.


This is the inside cover page of the book Rotary will donate to the Washington Library in August in honor of our speakers. Note the Rotary "book plate" and Kyle's signature in the book! The book is called "When Crayons Stop Working."
