Gain skills for life
When you become a Beaver you’ll go to meetings like none other. Real life experiences are the books, each page is an adventure with a new skill to learn and a place to explore while you play.
The character skills you’ll learn are the most important ones because they’ll make you feel strong and independent. Integrity and initiative is what you’ll gain along with courage to try new things.
Helping others
When you become a Beaver you join a team to help people in your community.
The Beaver Scout Law
Beavers have fun, work hard and help their family and friends.
The Beaver Scout Promise
I promise to do my best and to be kind and helpful and to love God.
Who leads Beavers
A Beaver Colony is led by an adult Beaver leader who is assisted by adult volunteers with activities to make sure that everyone is safe. Some leaders are given nicknames after characters from nature, books or films, or by their real first name.
In each Colony, some Beavers are also part of a Lodge. A Lodge is a smaller group of Beavers led by a Lodge Leader or Junior Leader, young person performing peer leadership. A peer leader is a champion or guardian who does things like greeting new members to the Colony, taking the lead on tasks during camp, or being responsible for an activity or game. Everyone gets to be a peer leader and experience the role.
Beavers often come together at the opening and closing of meetings. During trips and some activities they also band together.
The Beaver motto
"Sharing, Sharing, Sharing"
