Beavers
Welcome
to the Beaver Scouts Section. For youth 5 to 7 years of age.
We are looking for youth (14-17) and adult (18+) volunteers for our Beaver Colony. For more information on becoming a Scouter, please go to: www.137thottawascouts.com/become-scouter or check out the Scouts Canada’s website: www.scouts.ca/ca/volunteer.
Our Beaver Scout Colony is very active.
Beaver Scouts opens the door for your child to discover the world. It is filled with a little bit of everything – outdoor activities, games, music and sports. Along the way, Beaver Scouts meet new friends, learn cooperation and teamwork and develop self-confidence.
Beaver Scouts are welcomed into a group of energetic boys and girls just like them. They will meet with kind and caring leaders that will help them with anything they need to know about being a good Scout. They will feel respected and appreciated for their own uniqueness, and encouraged to bring all they can to their group and activities.
Beavers can work towards receiving Personal Achievement Badges (PAB) using the Beaver Scouts Plan-Do-Review PAB template. These badges are designed to allow youth to explore and expand skills and knowledge in areas that are of particular interest to them. For more information, checkout the Guide to Beaver Scout Personal Achievement Badges and for Guide to Personal Achievement Badges for Parents
For more information, please contact our Beaver Leaders.
