My friend Doug from YL Vancouver Island has contributed to YLHelp in the past and has sent me even more great stuff to share.

Below are his club plans from last semester and the coming semester. He said that the plans are based around a G6-8 (WyldLife) club with notes on the side for the high school club.  The talks have the same content for both clubs. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m so thankful that I’m getting more and more emails and suggestions from all of you out there! You are all really helping everyone out a ton. Including my clubs!

Patrick from Wooster, Ohio sent me his plans from last semester. They include song selections too. I recognize pretty much all the games and mixers, but not everything on the list. If you have questions, I recommend looking at YLPlaybook or asking the comments section. Maybe Patrick can chime in as needed. Read the rest of this entry »

My friend Joey and Alex are trying something this semester I thought would be worth passing along.

The Olympics have always been a strong theme in YL. I’ve seen plenty of programs at camp utilize this theme. One of my favorite was “Speed and Power”. Speed was an overweight guy and Power was a super skinny guy. Gotta love that. I remember my first club skit in high school was me running through the crowd with a fake Olympic torch before every club game in a toga. Read the rest of this entry »

Since the Saints pretty much dominated the Cardinals, I’m gonna be rooting for the Saints in the big game.

So this Monday we are going to do Super Bowl club with the Super Bowl being the following weekend. Our plans are posted below. Since we haven’t done the club yet, I won’t make any promises on this one. Read the rest of this entry »

North Carolina may almost be out of the AP top 25 in basketball, but they are near the top in the YL club plan polls!

My friend Hugh sent me their plans for the semester and they are great! I like how they mix up club with some different things like a concert and even doing club at the high school soccer game! Read the rest of this entry »
