Beavers are the second youngest of the Scouting movement, and generally meet for an hour per week.
Beavers began in 1986, and became the youngest section in the Scouting family since then Scouts has grown and now we have Squirrels. Beavers has now become the second youngest section accepting both boys and girls can join from around their 6th birthday and move on to Cubs when they are 8.
Beavers meet in groups called Colonies. Each Colony is part of a Scout group with Squirrel Dreys, Cub Packs, and Scout Troops, which means there’s plenty of support and space for each young person to grow.
