infoscouter Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 At one time, the BSA had a position named "Roundtable Commissioner". I believe this individual oversaw the Cub Scout and Boy Scout Roundtable Commissioners. See: http://www.sageventure.com/history/commissioner/ (scroll down part of the page covering the 1970's.

ramblinrosey Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Thnx Infoscouter!! would you believe My Dad still has his Rt Commish patch and he just told me it's in the mail!! Wonder if it would be legal to wear. Eagle07,I'm glad you started this thread and Good luck in your Scouting Adventures also!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstephens42 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 The position in ScoutNet is still 'Roundtable Commissioner'. I believe the registration code is still 83, but I'm not sure of that at the moment. National Supply doesn't make that patch any more since in most districts the roundtables are divided. Since you're doing the job, I say wear the appropriate patch, but I'd make sure the DC doesn't want you being an ADC. It's a different commissioner key progress record.

acco40 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 If one searches through the archives, the topic of Roundtable "folks" being on the training staff vs. commissioner staff was enlightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctbailey Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 hi Ramblin: As many have said all ready, it sounds like you are being tasked with Assistant District Commissioner duties. This is good. Please, Please, reconsider your trip to Philmont for the WB Refresher course. You would be so much better served by atttending the week long Commissioners Conference held at Philmont. You will find very quickly that Wood Badge is much different now than when you originally took it. My reccomendation to you is to hold off on the WB Refresher and take the Commissioners Conference. Serving as a Commissioner in any capacity has many different challenges than serving as a Scout Master. If you have any training oppurtunities either in your Council, or out-of-Council, you should get into any "Basic Commissioner Training" course as soon as possible. These are often held in conjunction with a "Commissioners College" or a "Commissioners Conference" being held at the local level. if you are committed to a weeks vacation anyways, and you are heading out west, if you can change plans - scrap the WB and get into the Philmont Commissioners Conference. It was the absolute best week of my life, and i would do it with you this summer if I could. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
