Our next roundtable is Thursday, February 9 - Join us from 7:30 - 9:00 pm at the Naperville LDS Stake Center, 1320 Ridgeland Ave., Naperville just south of Diehl off of Naper Blvd.

We missed you in January!   The weather was a little "frightful" that night and we thought it was best for everyone to be home with their families.

Earth Day is right around the corner, and Lynette Hoole of the Naperville Park District will give us a run-down of Earth Day activities in April that can be shared with your units.   Jason Ball will talk about rechartering, and Rod Herbig will share his considerable experience in how to give a scoutmaster minute.  Rod has promised to share some funny scoutmaster minutes as well Hope to see you there!

Opening/Closing Ceremony and Flags: Order of the Arrow
