What is Roundtable? • Open forum for scouters to exchange ideas. • Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Venturing and Varsity Leaders meet together as groups to discuss relevant issues in their packs, troops, crews and teams. • Open exchange of ideas with an experienced scouter facilitating for each group to review information and share their ideas. • Handouts are available at roundtable on a wide range of program ideas and upcoming activities and events in the district and council. • The Cub Scout session: A variety of craft ideas that are inexpensive and entertaining for the Cub Scouts. • Opportunity to get different ideas and feedback to take back and apply to your units to improve unit or solve problems. • District: Council: At Roundtable there is an opportunity to have access to council information and assistance. Also this is the perfect opportunity for units to have input on district and council events. There’s an updated Annual Health and Medical Record to use for 2020 • Part A is an informed consent, release agreement and authorization that needs to be signed by every participant (or a parent and/or legal guardian for all youth under 18). • Part B is general information and a health history. • Part C is your pre-participation physical exam completed by a certified and licensed health care provider. • For all Scouting events: Part A and B. Give the completed forms to your unit leader. This applies to all participants for all activities, day camps, local tours and weekend camping trips less than 72 hours. • For events or camps: Part A, B and C. A pre-participation physical is needed for resident, tour, or trek camps or for a Scouting event of more than 72 hours, such as Wood Badge and NYLT. The exam needs to be completed by a certified and licensed physician (M.D. or D.O.), nurse practitioner or physician assistant. If your camp has provided you with any supplemental risk information, or if your plans include attending one of the four national high- adventure bases, share the venue’s risk advisory with your medical provider when you are having your physical exam. • For high-adventure trips: Part A, B and C. Plus, each of the four national high-adventure bases (Florida Sea Base, Northern Tier, Philmont and the Summit Bechtel Reserve) has provided a supplemental risk advisory that explains in greater detail some of the risks inherent in that program. Please review these as some Scouts or leaders may not be physically or mentally able to handle the trek. Others arrive at a high-adventure base without discussing that base’s risk factors with their health care provider, meaning they have missing info at check-in that can slow down the process.
