Silver Beaver Alumni Association

Silver Beaver Award

The Silver Beaver Award is bestowed upon those persons who have given continued, unselfish, and effective service to the community, usually through the program of the Boy Scouts of America, but not limited to Scouting. Because Scouters may not nominate themselves for this award, only those persons who have been nominated by their Scouting peers are considered. The Silver Beaver Award is the highest recognition a local Council can bestow upon volunteer leaders.

Eligibility

Long-established policy limits the award of the Silver Beaver to adults 21 and older who are registered with the Boy Scouts of America as volunteer Scouters.
Nominations will not be considered for current or former professional Scouters within five (5) years of their leaving employment with the BSA. Other council employees (part time or full time) are eligible to receive the Silver Beaver Award based on their volunteer service, not employed service.
Nominations cannot be considered for posthumous awards.

Nomination Process

Download the Silver Beaver Nomination Form and fill it out with all the required information. Please note the following:
- Give the full name and titles (if any) of the nominee exactly as you want them to appear on the certificate.
- Furnish as much information as possible for each section.
Once the application form has been completed, it should be submitted to the Dan Beard Silver Beaver Alumni Association either electronically via email or mail to:

History of the Silver Fawn Award

Some of the 1971-1973 recipents listed above have (Fawn) indicated after their names. This is because they were awarded the Silver Fawn Award rather than the Silver Beaver Award at that time. Below is more information about the Silver Fawn Award.

Beginning in 1931, the Silver Beaver award was created as the Council level distinguished service award for the BSA. When created, the Silver Beaver was awarded only to men. In 1971, the National Council created the Silver Fawn Award as an equivalent for women. The award was discontinued in 1974, when the Silver Beaver was opened to be presented to all volunteers. A total of 2,455 Silver Fawns were awarded to outstanding women for support of Cub Scouting, with eleven of those being Dan Beard Council volunteers.

Silver Fawn holders were given the option to convert their Silver Fawn Award to the Silver Beaver Award. Many did not convert their award and some later received the Silver Beaver Award for their continued service to Scouting, although there is no record of this happening in the Dan Beard Council.

The medal for the Silver Fawn is a silver pendant of a sitting fawn suspended from a green and white ribbon. The knot for the award was the Silver Beaver knot, since a knot matching the ribbon would appear to be a Scouter’s Key knot, which had been green and white since 1946.

While the first documentation of the Silver Fawn Award only mentioned the knot being the same as Silver Beaver, the 1973 Official Uniforms and Insignia specified the Silver Beaver knot on blue, since at that time most recipients were in Cub Scouting. This knot was originally created for Sea Scout uniforms in 1951, but did double duty until it was discontinued.
