Elm Fork District Roundtable
Who: All Cub Scout and Scouts BSA Leaders - Every unit should be represented at Roundtable each month in order to stay connected and informed.
What: Roundtable is a place for adult leaders to gather, network with other Scouters, receive supplemental training, and learn important district and council information. The monthly event provides program topic guidance, information about district/council events, and constructive suggestions for unit leaders. It is a fun learning environment that creates excitement around the coming month of activities and programs for unit leaders to carry back for implementation in their units.
When: Second Tuesday of each month (except June and July) - 7:30 pm - gathering begins at 7:15 p.m.
Where: St. Rita Catholic Community (12521 Inwood Road Dallas, Texas 75244, please see map below)
Why: "Every Scout deserves a trained leader" and you will have FUN and learn new ideas to take back to your units, as well as, make new friends!
