RYLA (Rotary Youth Leadership Awards) is a Leadership Conference held annually. It is designed for 100-125 high school students who have completed their sophomore or junior year. Students are selected by Rotary Clubs in District 6970, which covers northeast Florida. The Rotary Clubs select the students to send and pay the student registration fee, so the conference is free to the students. |

Coins for the dead is a form of respect for the dead. The long-standing military practice began in classical antiquity when people believed the dead needed coins to pay a ferryman to cross the river Styx. In modern times the practice has been observed in the U.S. and Canada: visitors leave coins on the headstones of former military personnel. The coins show respect and serve as a silent "we were here". In honor of this year's Memorial Day, on Saturday June 6, Palm Valley Rotarians will visit Jacksonville National Cemetery, 4083 Lannie Road, Jacksonville to place pennies (traditional coin to show respect and visitation at the gravesite) on the headstones of local fallen military personnel.
