Cabin Time Questions For Ordinary Club Talks
Help for Young Life Leaders NOW has some great advice for weekend camp speakers.
I recently spoke at a YL weekend camp. One of the best pieces of YL camp speaking advice I ever received was to plan your cabin time questions before you plan your talk.

He has an entire category of club plans in Word format along with the posts that describe the Club. This is an excellent resource.
I’ve been looking over a bunch of them [...]
