Silver Beaver Award Class of 2026

We are proud to recognize the following Scouters who were selected as this years’ class of Silver Beaver recipients:

Shaun Carroll, David Craighead, William Grant, 

Todd Rosenberg, Michael Raggi, and Thomas Epp

 

The Silver Beaver Award was introduced in 1931 and is a council‐level distinguished service award of the Boy Scouts of America. It is the highest award that a local council can present to one of its volunteers.

It is given for distinguished service to youth through Scouting, as well as an individual’s contributions to their community in other ways. To be selected as a Silver Beaver recipient is a very difficult recognition to achieve and places recipients in a very select company.

When you see someone with a Silver Beaver knot on their uniform or the Silver Beaver medal draped around their neck, you are seeing “the best of the best.”
