We are looking forward to seeing you and your fellow Scouters from

  • Fun & fellowship with your fellow Scout Leaders!

  • Keep up on the latest Scout activities and any changes!
  • Great place to get your questions answered!
  • Roundtables are held every month on the second Thursday!
  • Attending Roundtables is a requirement for Adult Leader Knots

Cub Scout leader roundtables are held the second Thursday of each month.  Den and Pack leaders join for fun and fellowship while learning new tricks, stunts, games, crafts, ceremonies, songs and skits related to the Cub Scout theme and Webelos activity badges for the following month.  There are also opportunities for sharing ideas and activities with leaders from other Packs.

The objective of Roundtables is to give Pack Leaders program ideas; information on policy, events, and training opportunities; and an opportunity to share experiences and enjoy fun and fellowship with other Cub Scouting leaders. 

 

Guide to Safe Scouting

All volunteers participating in official Scouting activities should become familiar with the Guide to Safe Scouting.  The latest copy of the Guide to Safe Scouting is found here.

The purpose of the Guide to Safe Scouting is to prepare adult leaders to conduct Scouting activities in a safe and prudent manner. The policies and guidelines have been established because of the real need to protect members from known hazards that have been identified through 90-plus years of experience. Limitations on certain activities should not be viewed as stumbling blocks; rather, policies and guidelines are best described as stepping-stones toward safe and enjoyable adventures.

Click here for a PowerPoint presentation of the Guide to Safe Scouting.  This is useful when educating a group of people, leaders or your den about safe scouting.

Wood Badge for the 21st Century

IMG: Wood Badge  

Session 1 - April 24-26
Session 2 - May 15-17
At Scoutland

The Wood Badge Course

Wood Badge began in 1919, when Baden-Powell took Scout leaders to Gilwell Park for advanced leader training. Wood Badge came to America in 1948, and has evolved since then to become the BSA’s premier leadership training event for adult Scouters. Wood Badge teaches contemporary leadership skills in an outdoor setting. Its five central themes are:

  • Models for Success
  • Bringing the Vision to Life
  • Leading to Make a Difference
  • Tools of the Trade
  • Living the Values
Wood Badge participants can expect to:
  • Learn leadership skills
  • Have fun with Council Volunteer and Professional Scouters

Course Information

Wood Badge is appropriate training for all currently registered BSA adult Scouters, regardless of program level (Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Varsity Scouting, Venturing, district, and Council Scouters) who have completed their training (Fast Start, New Leader Essentials, and Leader Specific Training). Wood Badge participants are expected to set a proper Scouting example by wearing their complete BSA Field Uniform while at Wood Badge. A Trading Post will be available during the course that will stock drink and snacks, along with Wood Badge memorabilia. Wood Badge consists of 2 full 3-day weekends, both at Scoutland on Lake Lanier.
