Calling All Scout Leaders to Arrowwood Roundtable

Arrowwood Roundtable - what is it and why should I attend?

YOU have an opportunity to help the Arrowwood District be the best in the Black Swamp Area Council.  The second Thursday of each month scouters from the district meet together for the District Roundtable.  One month it is held in Tiffin and the next month it is held in Findlay!  What is the Arrowwood Roundtable and why should you attend?

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 and Venturing 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.  There are training opportunities each month and there are opportunities for boy scouts to take advantage of merit badge counselors teaching merit badges during roundtable.  In the OA?  Come a half hour early and participate in the chapter meeting.  There is a lot you can accomplish in one evening!

Do you have questions about how to solve issues in your unit? 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.

The BSA continues to update requirements and training to provide the best program for all Scouts.  Roundtable is the perfect opportunity to keep abreast of these changes and make sure your pack or troop is moving in the right direction.  All Scout leaders, committee members and parents are welcome to attend.  Some packs and troops have a schedule for den leaders and cub/scoutmasters to attend so that their unit is represented at each meeting.  It doesn’t need to be the same representative every time, all are welcome!

Questions and/or concerns can be sent to our District Executive at: marc.garcia@scouting.org
