The Silver Beaver Award is presented upon action of a Council Executive Board of one of the Scouting America’s local councils for outstanding service to youth within the council or for outstanding longtime service to youth by a registered Scouter residing within that Council. The average tenure for Silver Beaver candidates is ten years or longer. Career members of the Scouting America may receive this award upon concurrence of the Council Scout Executive and the Director of Operations at the National office, Scouting America. Candidates for this award must be nominated. Self-nomination disqualifies the candidate.
