Rabobank Young Rural Leaders Summit
Outward Bound recently delivered the first Rabobank Young Rural Leaders Summit. This program was an initiative of the Country Education Foundation of Australia (CEFA). In 2009, 36 young rural leaders (including 3 students from Kimba) were sponsored to participate in the Summit in Tharwa, Canberra. The seven day program include activities such as abseiling as well as social and creative challenges to allow them to discover and develop their leadership potential.

Rotary Youth Leadership Award (RYLA)
 RYLA is a Rotary Club initiative designed for 18 to 25 years olds.  In the April or July school holidays RYLA-a week  long live-in seminar, is held in Adelaide, usually somewhere in the beautiful Adelaide Hills.  The week is  action packed, full of inspirational guest speakers who talk about self esteem, values, personality, power
 of the mind, team building, situational leadership, goal setting, time management, public speaking,
 communication, debating and more.  Leadership skills are acquired throughout the week by way of
 games and activities, instructed by the 5 mentors (who are all previous awardees).  You will meet many
 new people and make life long friends. All food and accommodation is provided, and some travel
 expenses will be reimbursed.  Belinda Foureur and Abby King of Port Lincoln attended the 2006 RYLA
 and found it to be a fantastic and worthwhile experience. Abby returned in 2007 and 2008 to help run RYPEN, a similar program designed for 14-17 year olds, run over a weekend.
