We are currently accepting nominations for the Silver Beaver Award, Trailblazer Award, Youth Leadership Award, Alumnus of the Year Award, and Eagle Scout Hall of Fame.

There are many eligible and deserving Scouts and Scouters who go above and beyond in their dedication to Scouting. Now is the time to show them how much their efforts are appreciated.

Deadline for submitting nominations is December 1, 2023. Applications (and lists of past award recipients) are available on the Awards Page of the PPC website or by clicking on the award name below.

Silver Beaver Award:  For distinguished and noteworthy service of exceptional character to youth by registered Scouters in any program area within the territory under the jurisdiction of the local council.

Trailblazer Award: Presented to Scouters who have achieved significant accomplishments on a council level over a 24-month period. The accomplishments should be directly related to the Council Vision Statement and Strategic Plan.

Youth Leadership Award: Presented to youth members who have achieved excellence in scholastics, shown outstanding involvement in the community, and demonstrated exceptional dedication and outstanding leadership qualities in the council.

Council Alumnus of the Year Award:  Scouting Alumni Association’s highest council recognition. The award was established to recognize alumni of the Boy Scouts of America who, over a sustained period of time, have used the skills and values they learned through their association with Scouting to make significant and long-lasting contributions to their local communities through their careers, avocations, and Scouting.

Eagle Scout Hall of Fame:  The Patriots’ Path Council Eagle Scout Hall of Fame Award was established to recognize Eagle Scouts who, after 25 years or longer of having received the Eagle Scout Award, have reached a high level of success in their chosen field. In addition, potential recipients have demonstrated a strong record of volunteer leadership service to the Patriots’ Path Council and their community.

Recipients will be announced at the council’s annual meeting on February 26, 2024. The awards (except for the Eagle Hall of Fame Award) will be presented at the 2024 PPC Awards Celebration which will be held at Winnebago Scout Reservation on April 27, 2024
