Beaver Colony Notices

All Beavers are expected to learn the Beaver Law, Promise and Motto. We would ask that parents work with their child at home to learn all three. They are as follows:

Beaver Law: A Beaver has fun, works hard and helps family and friends.
Beaver Promise: I promise to love God and to help take care of the world.
Beaver Motto: Sharing, Sharing, Sharing

The Law, Promise and Motto are all explained as part of the Beaver story, contained in Friends of the Forest, recommended reading for Beavers and available at any of the Scout Shops for $5.99 plus tax.  

Uniforms are a traditional part of Scouting, even at the Beaver level. We would ask that parents teach the children to respect their uniform and that you make every effort possible to ensure that your child wears his/her complete uniform to every meeting and any official Beaver function or outing (there are some exceptions such as our Halloween dress-up party and outings such skating).

This year, brief uniform inspections will take place as they gather in their Lodges just prior to the opening of each meeting. Once again, a word of advice; please put your child's name somewhere on the inside of each piece of the uniform (the product label is a good spot). During some activates they will come off and can easily get mixed up. Please note that only the official badges should be applied to the uniform vest. Special badges or crests received for outings and events are keepsakes and should not be put on their vest, but can be applied to a 'Memory Blanket' or a jacket. For more detailed information on the uniform please go the "uniform" section of this site.
