Silver Beaver

Silver Beaver Award

The Silver Beaver Award is the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a volunteer at the Council level. The award recognizes registered Scouters of exceptional character who have provided distinguished service.

Anyone may nominate any deserving registered Scouter to the Council for the Silver Beaver. Each year, the Silver Beaver committee reviews nominations and selects recipients for the award, which is formally presented at the Annual Council Recognition Dinner in the Fall.
