Silver Buffalo Award
The Silver Buffalo Award, created in 1925, is Scouting’s highest commendation, recognizing the invaluable contributions that outstanding American men and women render to youth. The service must be national or international in character and may or may not be directly connected with Scouting America. The award is presented each spring at the National Annual Meeting.
