April 2026 — Equipment and Program Material Swap

This month

April roundtable is a combined session for all programs. There is no separate Cub Scouts or Scouts BSA breakout this month.

Equipment and program material swap

This month's roundtable is built around a swap meet for Scouting gear and program materials. Bring what you're no longer using. Take home something another unit can put to work.

What's eligible:

  • Camping equipment
  • Scouting-related literature
  • Uniforms and uniform parts
  • Program materials that support or implement the Scouting program

Ground rules:

  • All items must be clean, serviceable, and ready to use.
  • If an item needs minor repairs, disclose that to the person taking it.
  • You may swap, sell, or give items away. Financial arrangements are between you and the other party.
  • Anything you bring that does not transfer to another leader goes home with you. Nothing may be left on site.

How the evening runs:

  • 6:30 PM — Doors open for setup.
  • 7:00 PM — Opening and short program.
  • After opening — Swap begins.
  • 8:20 PM — Cleanup starts. Plan to be out by 8:30.

Location note: We are using the unfinished room on the north end of the building. Entry and setup begin at the north parking lot.
