The motto of RYPEN is the cultivation of youth. The quality of our future depends on the quality of our youth. They deserve the nurturing of Rotary through the RYPEN Seminar. If you think a young person has qualities worth developing, then they are suitable for RYPEN.

RYPEN is a programme for girls and boys of average capabilities aged between 14 and 16 years, possessing qualities of decency, persistence, sincerity and application in every day life, and who would benefit from further development.

The RYPEN Programme is a three day live in camp held twice a year at Blue Gum Lodge, Fels Avenue, Springwood normally in May and September. It runs from Friday through to Sunday.
