UPDATE: Attention Scout parents! As our current scouts grow from Cub Scouts to Webelos and on to Boy Scouts, we will need volunteers to fill positions vacated by those leaders moving on. Please look over the list and if you see something that you're interested in and fits you well, please contact Gary Payne. We can get you started in training so when the day comes you will be more than comfortable in your new leadership role and the pack will transition smoothly. Without the help of our parents the pack cannot grow. It's up to each and every parent to help contribute as much as they can.

Roundtable Meetings - Roundtable is typically the first Thursday of the month and are virtual. Find out more about Roundtable Meetings here https://www.facebook.com/groups/frontiertrails

Gathering starts at 6:30 pm Meeting starts sharply at 7:00 pm

What is District Roundtable? Roundtable is exactly what it implies - it really is an opportunity for scouters as a group to have an opportunity for an equal exchange of ideas. Boy Scout and Cub Scout leaders and interested parties meet together to discuss relevant issues in our troops and packs today.

There is a great deal of camaraderie developed at the meetings as there is an open exchange of ideas. There is a designated leader as the Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts often separate but usually the leader serves as a facilitator for the attendees to share their ideas while guiding the group through the material.

Exclusive handouts available only at the roundtable are passed out. The Cub Scout portion often has a variety of craft ideas that are inexpensive and entertaining for the Cub Scouts.

Do you have questions about how to solve issues in your troop or pack? Roundtable is a perfect opportunity to get different ideas and feedback to take back home with you.

In addition to the back and forth openness at Roundtable there is an opportunity to have access to council information and assistance. Also this is the perfect opportunity to have input on council and district events. All Scout leaders, committee members and parents are welcome to attend.
