Roundtables are a form of commissioner service and supplemental
training for volunteers at the unit level. It serves as a source of information
on events and training and an opportunity to share experiences and enjoy
fellowship with other unit leaders. Roundtables provide unit leaders with
skills, techniques, and program ideas to enhance the quality of their meetings.
. Please make an effort to participate in these informative sessions, which are
designed to assist unit level leadership in program development.
