Planning Your SYATP

Use the questions below to help you plan See You at the Pole™ at your school. You will want to make notes of who has accomplished or who has been assigned each task to make sure everything gets done.

-Have we informed our principal about this event?
-What time will we begin on our campus—before school? at lunch? after school?
-Where on our campus will we gather?
-Do we have an alternative meeting place off the school property?
-Do we have an alternative meeting place in case of rain?
-Do we have more than one flagpole to choose from?
-Should students wear Christian t-shirts promoting the day?
-Will someone supply any other means of signifying participation?
-How will we handle distractions such as traffic noise, onlookers, etc.?
-How will we begin the event? Who will lead off?
-Will there be other elements, such as singing?
-Will we hold hands, kneel down, break into small groups, remain in a large group, etc.?
-What will we pray for or about on that day?
-Will we have audible or silent prayer?
-How will we know when it’s over?
-Have we contacted/informed the FCA and/or other Christian organizations’ adult representative(s) at your school?
-How will we answer questions regarding your participation in this event?
-How can each person promote this event before the fourth Wednesday in September?
-Will we have a post-SYATP rally? YES: REALITY CHECK
-Will you be the one, even if no one else will?
