The Boy Scouts of America supports a monthly Roundtable all over America. These meetings are reminiscent of the legendary King Arthur’s Round Table in which knights assembled to discuss the betterment of the people (Scouts) they were serving and watching over.

ROUNDTABLE IS... A program forum for leaders to exchange ideas, solve problems and share successes.

A program to help you and your leaders be better leaders and mentors.

A program that leads to new discoveries and adventures for your Scouts to enjoy.

A program that helps you find resources, recognition and opportunities for networking.

A program that helps share new, creative and innovative Ideas for your unit.

A program filled with information, fun, inspiration, demonstrations, displays, action, training, beneficial information, learning and enthusiasm.

A program that will help you and your unit achieve success in all that you do.
