What Is Roundtable?
The BSA's Roundtable meetings are monthly supplemental training and information sessions for leaders and involved parents from Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity and Venturing. The allusion to Camelot's roundtable conjures up images of errant knights assembling to discuss the problems of the people (Scouts) they serve. Unit leaders join for fun and fellowship while learning new skills, tricks, stunts, games, crafts, ceremonies, songs, skits and more! Cub Scout leaders will also gain ideas on how to the following month's Cub Scout monthly core value. The Roundtable meeting is also a place for sharing ideas and activities with leaders from other scouting units.
Separate Roundtables are held for Cub Scout and Boy Scout leaders. The objective of the Roundtable is to give unit leaders program ideas; information on policy, events, training and an opportunity to share experiences and enjoy fun and fellowship with other Scouting leaders. As a result of the roundtable experience, unit leaders will be inspired, motivated, and able to provide a stronger program for their own scouts.
