Monthly Round Table Training Night

Your help and participation is requested.

2nd Thursday of the month 7 PM

Hello Scouter,

We are looking for volunteers to provide service to the leaders in our district. Each month, there is a break out time for specific training or presentations that have to do with the upcoming monthly theme or possibly a theme or idea that you are familiar with. If you are interested in doing a 15-20 minute training or presentation for our Boy Scout or Cub Scout leaders, that may help them to continue to provide new and exciting programs for the boys, let us know.

 

Yours In scouting,

Jim McMahon

 

 

DEN CHIEF TRAINING

DEN LEADERS 

One of the best ways to run your Den and Pack meetings is to have a Den Chief or Chiefs as an aide.

At Den meetings they can help set up for the evenings program, keep the Cubs occupied while you finish preparing, have them do the opening activity, teach the Cubs how to do proper flag opening and closing ceremonies and help with the evenings project.

Also, being close in age to the Cubs they would be a good source for ideas for Den meetings and how to put those ideas out there so it would be interesting to the Cubs.

Your Den Chief would set a good example of how a Boy Scout works with both adults and youth and demonstrate the leadership skills he has learned in Scouting.

Contact a local Boy Scout Troop and ask if they have Scouts who would like to be Den Chiefs.

 Den Chiefs are something that are in short supply in our District and yet they can play a vital role not only for the Dens they would help but for your Troop as well.

It’s a known fact that the Cubs that these Den Chiefs work with more often than not crossover into the Troops these Den Chiefs come from. He’s a familiar face for them when they enter the Troop and can be used as Patrol Guides for the New Boy Patrol.

The office of Den Chief not only helps the Troop but is also beneficial for the Den Chief in that this position is recognized as a leadership position for the Eagle application.

For questions please e-mail me at Ltuisis@aol.com
