Rotary Youth Programme of Enrichment (RYPEN) - thanks
The following email has been received by Ian Grant (Youth/New Generation Director) from Claire Hamilton. Rotary Cambridge sponsored her to attend Waikato RYPEN at Lakewood Lodge Rangiriri.
I would like to thank you for driving me to Lakewood Lodge for me to take part in the Rypen trip.
I had an amazing weekend and I am grateful for the ride and you taking the time out of your weekend to drive me.
Words are not enough to express the excitement that my visit to Lakewood Lodge had. There is no doubt about the effort, hard work and dedication that had been put into this weekend, I can't thank you enough for this opportunity for me to take part in the Rypen trip.
I loved meeting new people I have made some amazing friends, and participating in the many activities.
Thank you again,
Claire Grantham,
Cambridge High School
