Beavers Beavers are our youngest section – aged 6-8 years old. Our Beaver Colony meets for an hour each week at the Scout Hall, on Tuesdays from 6:15 – 7:15pm Beavers enjoy all that Scouting has to offer; being introduced to outdoor activities, having the opportunity to be creative, explore their local community and may experience the excitement of a Beaver Sleepover with their friends. During their time in the Colony, Beavers will get a chance to try a wide range of different activities as well as going on trips and days out. Participation rather than meeting set standards is the key approach, and there are a range of challenge awards and activity badges available that Beavers can gain – both at Beavers and at home. Beavers “swim up” to become Cubs between the age of 7 ½ and 8 ½ years old.
