Roundtable Staff Objectives

Roundtables are a form of commissioner service and supplemental training for volunteers at all levels. The objective of roundtables is to give leaders program ideas; information on policy, events, and training opportunities; and an opportunity to share experiences and enjoy fun and fellowship with other Scouting leaders. The roundtable commissioner and staff demonstrate elements of a model meeting that leaders may use as a pattern for their own meetings. The roundtable experience will inspire, motivate, and enable unit leaders to provide a stronger program for their Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, Webelos and Boy Scouts.

Meeting Times:

7 PM - 8 PM

Saint Luke’s United Methodist Church, Danville VA

Our Charge

Paul the Apostle made this charge to a young man that he had taken under his wing: Love others, keep a clean mind and live by faith. He was giving this young man three principle that he could use to guide his life and our scouts can use these same principles. Love others by helping others at all times, being trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, and brave. He can keep a clean mind by being clean in what he reads, clean in what he listens to and always being mentally awake to the dangers in this world around him. He can live by faith by being reverent and in his duty to God and living by the principles laid down in his word. Charge your scouts to do these things, but remember, your examples is the best teacher.
