EVERYONE SHOULD COME TO DISTRICT ROUNDTABLE!
Scout Masters, Cub Masters, Assistant Scout Masters, Den Leaders, Committee Chairs, Committee Members, Senior Patrol Leaders or their representatives, OA Members and Parents!
WHY? Because there is always something to be learned or information you need there! Even things you don't know you need!
Where and When:
Lafayette District Roundtable
2nd Wednesday of the month, September through June.
Media Center, J.P. Mascaro Building, 2650 Audubon Rd, Audubon, PA
In September,
Lafayette District has had their re-charter date moved to November 26! No bending on this date! ALL re-charters need to be in by the Wednesday before Thanksgiving - Nov. 26. In order to help you get this done, there will be a workshop at September's Roundtable to explain changes and help you on your way. We have a special speaker coming, Chuck Bolger, our Council Commissioner, to talk about the changes, what it means to our district, and help us with our re-charters. PLEASE send at least 2 people from your unit to this Roundtable so we can help you get started.
At Roundtables, you can learn more about what is going on in our District, in our Council and with the BSA. All Leaders and Committee Members are encouraged to attend to learn about, and get help with planning your activities and meetings. For example, Committee members can learn how to conduct Boards of Review according to BSA Guidelines. We will have Committee Challenge training there or arrange to come to your unit. You can learn how to better support your unit! Scout Masters, Cub Masters - looking for new ideas for fun and new activities, how to deal with safety, planning, new camps? Come to Roundtable!
All Senior Patrol Leaders, Assistant Senior Patrol Leaders or Troop Scout Representatives should attend our special breakout session just for you! You will learn what is going on in the District so you can inform your troop on what to expect and plan for!
Order of the Arrow members hold their monthly meetings during Roundtable - so OA members and Troop OA Representatives should plan to be there.
Parents who want to know what's going on, or maybe looking to offer assistance at an event should come see what's being planned.
Cub Scouting will be undergoing some major changes! The Cub Scout Program has been revamped - to debut in August/September 2015. We will be offering special sessions to get you trained and aware of these new changes during Roundtable Cub Scout Breakout sessions. As many Cub Scout Leaders and Committee members as possible NEED to be there for these sessions!
The Cub Scout Promise and Law of the Pack convert to Scout oath and Scout Law in May, 2015. We will prepare you for that also!
Venturing Crews have already converted to using the Scout Oath, Scout Law and Scout Sign.
At Roundtable you also get the opportunity to talk to your District Committee and Commissioners, as well as other Scouters about any concerns or questions you may have, and maybe get some great new ideas!
These are some of the reasons for everyone to attend Roundtable. The more you attend, the more help you get, the more ideas you get, the more you can learn! All this to enable you to do your part more easily and better!
I look forward to seeing you at Lafayette District Roundtables!
