June 6, 2006 > Rotary Youth Leadership Awards

by Roy Porfido

Each year the Rotary Clubs of Fremont, Newark and Union City recognize young leaders in our community by awarding scholarships to attend a one-week leadership training camp. Local award winners will attend District 5170's camp near Boulder Creek, Colo. from June 18 to 23 where they will join other winners from around the world. Participants will study and practice leadership skills that they can bring back to their local communities.
