Rotary Camp

Leadership In Action

Rotary Camp 2012

Some people may define a leader as one who is in charge of a group or activity. However, a true leader is a servant first. This year’s SC/Rotary Leadership Camp theme "Ordinary Superheroes" encompasses the possibilities and responsibilities of being a servant leader and highlights what Rotary is doing in different communities, and teaches hero-like traits to ordinary high school students! The camp will take place May 25 - May 29, 2013, on the Southwestern College campus. Throughout the camp students will learn about themselves and others, about motivation and teamwork. The students will discover that he or she cannot be a leader without being a servant first. Read below to find out how you can be an ordinary superhero with Leadership Southwestern.

“The first step to leadership is servanthood.” —John Maxwell
