Roundtable is a meeting on the third Thursday of every month for Scout leaders and anybody wishing to learn more about Scouting and upcoming events. We highly encourage all Scouting leaders to come. There are breakouts sessions for each level of scouting and a general session for all to attend. The premise is to learn from other scouting leaders that have already been or are going through the program and ask the questions you may have. It is a great opportunity to find out what events are going on in the Council and District for units and their families.
Roundtable is a week away and we have big announcements. We are pleased to now have Troy Porter as our new ADC for Roundtable. Troy is a former Scoutmaster of Troop 314 and recently was the Wood Badge Course Director of the course that just ended last month. We are excited to announce that Roundtable will be back at Melbourne Church of Christ (810 W Hollywood Blvd, West Melbourne). We will have a midway set up at 6:30pm to see what is going on in the district and ask questions. Roundtable will begin at 7:00 pm. See you there!
