District Roundtable–   Join us for our monthly Roundtable meeting, where we cover a different training topic each month!  In an hour and a half, we will help save you time planning your unit’s program and enjoy some fellowship with other unit leaders.

Each Month features a Cub Scout and Scouts BSA Break Out and a general announcement session.

Location – The Polaris Roundtable is held in a hybrid style, from 7:30 to 9:00 PM on the 2nd Wednesday of each month.  There are some months of the year that will be In-Person only.  Roundtables are held at the Good Samaritan UMC, 19624 Homestead Rd, Cupertino, CA 95014.
