Popular Post jsharr ★ Posted December 13, 2020 Popular Post Share #1 Posted December 13, 2020 So this happened on Friday. I was informed on Friday that I have been nominated and accepted to receive The BSA Silver Beaver. Was not expecting this at all and was floored by the phone call from an old friend to let me know of the honor. The Silver Beaver Award is the council-level distinguished service award of the Boy Scouts of America. Upon nomination by their local Scout council and with the approval of the National Court of Honor, recipients of this award are registered adult leaders who have made an impact on the lives of youth through service given to the council.[1] The Silver Beaver is an award given to those who implement the Scouting program and perform community service through hard work, self-sacrifice, dedication, and many years of service. It is given to those who do not seek it. 6 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted December 13, 2020 Share #15 Posted December 13, 2020 Congrats Jsharr. My Dad was a Scout leader for over 20 years while we were growing up so I have some idea of the time, effort and sacrifices you make for the program. You are a good man. Pat yourself on the back. You deserve this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UglyBob Posted December 14, 2020 Share #25 Posted December 14, 2020 I live near Sun City, a major retirement area. A Silver Beaver means something completely different here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
