First Week, First Friends: Afterschool Kickoff with RYI

First to the Fun: Afterschool Launch Week

Kick off the school year with an afternoon full of connection, creativity, and celebration! This first-week-only session is all about YOU, making new friends, having fun, and being recognized for your leadership in showing up first.

From interactive icebreakers to Oscar-style interviews, every activity is designed to help you connect, share your story, and feel valued for who you are. You’ll leave with new friendships, a sense of accomplishment, and your very own Trailblazer Award trophy stress ball to celebrate your initiative.

What to Expect:

• Fun Icebreakers & Group Activities to discover common interests and make friends
• Spotlight Moments where you’ll get to share someone else’s story and have yours shared, too
• Trailblazer Awards Ceremony to honor your leadership in kicking off the year strong
• Light snacks, music, and a welcoming space to relax and connect

Join us for a memorable start to the year where you’re not just attending, you’re leading the way.
