In Scouting, we say “it’s about the youth” and none of our adults are involved for the recognition, but every now and then we need to say thanks especially to those volunteers whose leadership and example has left a lasting positive impact on the program and the broader community. One was we do that is through nominating a Scouter for the Silver Beaver Award, the highest adult recognition a council can bestow.
Join us on Wednesday, January 29th at Lake Pearl, Wrentham to recognize these outstanding volunteers for their service to Scouting and their communities.
