The January Roundtable offers you a unique choice of , not 3, but 4 topics. Cub Scout Leaders can choose from “Crossover / Blue & Gold” presented by the person that imagined and delivered the 2021 Pack 170 Blue & Gold Wow! Also, step up your Derby game with ideas and tips from a Derby Dynamo. We won’t forget Cub Program Helps either. Scouts BSA is holding a district-wide Scoutmaster and Senior Patrol Leader Council. You won’t want to miss this one!

This is a Hybrid event. You are welcome to join us at Good News UMC on New Hope or use the Zoom link below to join from home.
