Leaders Help Page

 

   The objective of this page is to enable leaders to help other leaders by submitting tips and advice that they've learned over time for others to benefit from.  This can include things like special outings or camping locations in and out of the district, special contacts or procedures to smooth the way on various trips and outings, lessons learned from any given event, tips and materials for setting up and conducting various meetings or gatherings more effectively, what to take with you as a leader to ensure you're prepared for the routine (and not so routine) surprises that can occur on outings, good resources for equipment and supplies, etc. 

   The content on this page will be as varied as your imaginations and experiences.  You tell us what you think should be here or what you want to be here.  Just send your ideas and requests to the Webmaster.

   A wealth of resources, products and help is provided by the Dan Beard council.  They have two locations to serve you.  See the table below for contact info and maps.

Roundtables

   One of the best ways for both new and experienced leaders to get the help they need and stay abreast of developments in the district is to attend the monthly Roundtable meetings, held the second Wednesday of each month from 7:00 – 9:30PM in the cafeteria at:

Butler Tech (D. Russell Lee Vocational Center)
3603 Hamilton Middletown Rd. (Rte. 4)
Hamilton, OH 45011

    A short general meeting is held first for all attending, and then we separate into two different meetings – one for the Cub Scout leaders and one for the Boy Scout leaders.  (Check the Events Calendar for location changes or any specific instructions for each meeting.)

 

 Following are the lists of topics to be covered in each Cub Scout Leaders Roundtable and Boy Scout Leaders Roundtable this year:

Scout Camps USA

A Guide to BSA Camps, Camping, & More
Paul C. Fairbanks
Pfairco Publications, Ltd.
Palatine, Illinois
Website: http://www.scoutcampsusa.com/
Phone: 847-202-0541

   This book is an excellent resource to identify camping opportunities throughout the entire United States. Every Boy Scout Camp is identified with a list of facilities, activities, and contact information. In addition, military bases that are open to Scouts are also identified with the same information. This book will identify the camping opportunities to allow you to achieve your dream camping experiences.

 

Flag Retirement Ceremonies

   Here are links to ideas and examples of Flag Retirement Ceremonies that unit leaders can use to involve their Scouts in honoring our flag and our nation’s heritage and to teach our youth more of our traditions and procedures.
