November 2026 Roundtable Recap & Troop Showcase

Roundtable Graphic on top of mountain trail.

Twelve local troops shared a look at their programs at the November 12 Twin Valley Roundtable. If your Webelos or Arrow of Light Scout is getting ready to cross over, the showcase is a good place to start planning troop visits.

Meet the Troops

Browse the showcase presentations with your Scout. Pick a couple of troops to visit and ask what a typical meeting looks like, what outings they have planned, and how they welcome new Scouts.


Thank you to the Scouts and leaders who shared their programs with Twin Valley families.

Three next steps for unit leaders

  • Check your roster before unit renewal. Look for adult leaders who have dropped off and youth whose memberships have expired. Review adult volunteer eligibility, including Safeguarding Youth Training and AB 506. If a youth’s renewal button is missing, contact the council office for help.

  • Log an outdoor activity your unit already held. In the November 9 snapshot, all 14 units scoring 3 out of 5 were missing the outdoor or super activity metric. Unit Key 3 members can see their score in My.Scouting → Organization Manager → Unit Dashboard. To record an outdoor activity from the past 12 months, go to Organization Manager → Unit Data Metric Entry.

  • Schedule your Family Friends of Scouting presentation. The district’s goal is for every unit to schedule a presentation and every family to return a response card. A $0 response is welcome and lets the district know the family has responded.
