Planning means:
- seeing where you are
- deciding where you want to go
- choosing a specific way to get there
- moving, a step at a time, to reach your destination
There are seven steps to effective program planning:
- Determine NEEDS.
- Choose GOALS based on those needs.
- Develop PLANS to achieve goals.
- Choose and use RESOURCES to put plans into action.
- Assign RESPONSIBILITIES.
- Experience THE EVENT.

Planning is asking the following questions:
- WHAT?
- WHY?
- WHEN?
- WHERE?
- WHO?
- HOW?
When planning:
- ...focus on diversity, variety and balance
- ...vary the topics and activities
- ...vary the program methods
- ...think creatively
- ...involve everyone as much as possible
