BRIGADE PLANNING CALENDAR

Here are some planning suggestions for February, March and April from the Brigade Chairman’s Handbook (cat # 334138):

  • February is Brigade Month. Be sure to coordinate and conduct Brigade Month events with your unit and church.
  • Invite your Regional Director to visit your group(s).
  • Review with your key leaders the successes and problems so far and the plans for the rest of the CSB season.
  • Share praises and prayer needs with your pastor(s) and church leadership teams.
  • Order materials for the rest of the season.
  • In March, encourage the men and boys to spend time at a Brigade camp near you.
  • Plan on a Father and Son campout for your own church or with the CSB Area.
  • Meet informally with your other leaders and discuss their evaluation of the ministry.
  • Draw your leaders together for a group discussion of the effectiveness of the leaders. What are their strengths and weaknesses? What training is needed? Which men need special counsel?
  • Have the Brigade Chairman, a pastor or a member of the church leadership team visit at least one weekly meeting.
  • Start looking for special events or activities to end your season with: banquet; hike; campout; sports event; etc.
  • Use April to focus on securing your Brigade leadership team for next season.
What special event are you planning to end your season with? We’d love to share it here.
