South
Plains Council
Silver
Beaver Award
Upon nomination by the local
council, this prestigious award is conferred by the National Council of
the Boy Scouts of America to those who have given Distinguished Service
to Youth.
Each year the South Plains
Council has the opportunity to recognize a limited number of Scouters in
the council by awarding them the Silver Beaver. The number of awards which
can be conferred each year is based on the number of units registered in
the council the preceding year.
The first Silver Beavers
were presented to K. N. Capp, Council
Commissioner, and Dr. J. C. Loveless, in 1931, the first year that Silver
Beavers became available for presentation.
Originally, the Boy Scouts
of America, the Silver Beaver was awarded to male Scouters; and the Silver
Fawn, was presented to female Scouters. This practice was discontinued
after 1974. Now both male and female Scouters are recognized with the Silver
Beaver Award.
