 Roundtable:
Roundtable is a training event to help the leaders of Cub Scout Packs and Boy Scout Troops to prepare for the next months program. For Cub Scout Leaders, ideas are presented to help Den Leaders, Webelos Leaders, Cubmasters and Committee members prepare for the theme of the month. Games, Songs, Skits, Ceremonies and Craft ideas are presented and practiced. You don't ever have to come up with program all by yourself, we're here to help!
Boy Scout Leader Roundtables present programs based on a survey of area Scout Leaders. Programs may include anything and everything. i.e. Utensiless cooking, dutch oven cooking, winter camping equipment, ultra-light backpacking equipment, training boy leadership, how to deal with disciplinary challenges, motivating boys to advance ....
Roundtables are currently held on the 2nd Thursday of each month, from 7:00-8:30 PM at Foss High School in Tacoma! There's no Roundtable in July and our August Roundtable is held at the Council Service Center.
