District Roundtable

What is Roundtable? Besides being FUN and EXCITING, Roundtable is a supplemental monthly training event meant to make your job as Leader EASIER! Our monthly sessions are jam packed with ideas and resources to help you plan the coming month. Think of how much time you would invest on brainstorming for ideas, collecting information and planning meetings. Compare that to the ninety minutes spent at Roundtable, where we provide tested, proven meeting plans, a FUN environment and energizing interaction with your fellow Leaders.

You will see that Roundtable actually saves you time!!! If you want to Do Your Best and Be Prepared for your Scouts, Roundtable is where you need to be.

These are nights of great fun so join us at Calvary Lutheran Church…you never know what will happen. Roundtables are the second Thursday of each month …make sure to check the website for updated locations and times.
