Roundtable

The Metacomet District Roundtable is a monthly meeting (September through May) where adult unit leaders and volunteers can come and exchange tips and ideas, and important information on upcoming events and training. Please make sure at least one active adult leader in your unit attends. You will take home valuable information that will help your unit thrive!

Your District Executive, Committee Chair, and District Commissioner(s) will be there to answer questions and help with challenges and opportunities with your unit.

Fliers will be handed out at the meeting for district and council wide events & training. After each meeting, these will be posted as PDF files below. Please note, these event fliers are not “class notes” and are only a fraction of the information you’ll gain at each meeting. Well run units correlate with Roundtable attendance!

Please check the calendar to confirm dates and locations. We look forward to seeing you!
