Thank you to all who contributed to my special Silver Beaver–one that came from my father’s era. As many of you already know, my father joined the Boy Scouts in 1920, earned his Eagle in 1923, and was awarded the Silver Beaver in the 1950s while I was a Scout. My older brother, John, also has a Silver Beaver, but his isn’t half as neat as mine!
As I often tell players in the sports leagues I have run, awards are given to representatives of a greater effort. So all of you own a piece of my Silver Beaver because you all were part of what earned it. Nobody does this stuff alone!
Thanks again,
-Hank
