      Silver Beaver to an employee?

      By NealOnWheels · Posted

      See application here https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/92-103.pdf Nominations will not be considered for current or former professional Scouters within five (5) years of their leaving employment with Scouting America. Other council employees (part time or full time) are eligible to receive the Silver Beaver Award based on their volunteer service, not employed service.

      Silver Beaver to an employee?

      By Eagle94-A1 · Posted

      If memory serves, there is a 5 year period that professionals are ineligible after leaving the profession. Do not know if any restriction on non professional staff, ie. office staff, rangers, etc. I do know of one SB recipient who was nominated before being employed by the council, but by the time of the awards ceremony, they were the camp ranger.

      And they are watching people playing a competitive game where the best players have been selected based on their abilities.  Everyone does not get to play, because everyone is not equal in that endeavor.  How ironic...

      It's about time that Scouting WOKE up

      By TeamOutsider · Posted

      I'm a "Life for Life" that got to 19 MBs.  The primary ones I missed were the Citz in Com/Nat/Wrld.   If you had your way, I'd probably be an Eagle today, but I still respectfully disagree with you.  When I review those requirements now as an adult - I disagree that I got the same experience in high school (which I did finish).  I did not: Citizenship in the Community: - learn the history of my community (req 1) - "Attend an in-person meeting of your city, town, or county council or school board, local court session; OR another state or local governmental meeting approved in advance by your counselor. " (req 2) - "volunteer at least eight hours".... at a" charitable organizations outside of Scouting" (req 7) - "Develop a public presentation (such as a video, slide show, speech, digital presentation, or photo exhibit) about important and unique aspects of your community" (req 8. ) ...and that's just the 1st of those badges. I'm happy to drop it and agree to disagree - but my experience has been different from yours, and I believe there's value in all 3 of the current Citz. MB's. Edit:  After I posted this on a re-read, I want to acknowledge you did say "Citizenship in Community provides value and is often missed in school".  So we're at least in agreement on that.  Thank you.

      Question: Don't all three pictures show them not paying to go see the game? (stealing) While everyone paid for their seats.
