This Years Recipients:
Silver Beaver: Fred Drzewiecki, Kendra Gaynor, Brett Kennedy and Bill Loockerman
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. 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.
William T. Hornaday Gold Medal: Herb Darling
The William T. Hornaday Award was created in 1915 to recognize major contributions to and service in environmental conservation, and is one of the rarest awards available in Boy Scouting. The Gold Medal was created in 1975 to honor adult Scouters with lifetime service of more than twenty years and lasting impact in multi-state regions, nationally, or internationally. Though the 1975 statutes for the Gold Medal limit annual awards to no more than six recipients, as of 2017, only 51 people have been awarded the Gold Medal since its creation.
