Beaver Scouts (commonly known as Beavers) are the youngest age group in Scouting Ireland and are aged between 6 and 8 years of age. The personal progressive scheme employed in Beavers is called the "paw print trail", with each member following the trail, collecting paw badges along the way.
Structure
A group of Beavers is called a Beaver Scout Colony. The colony is run by a Beaver Scout Leader with the help of Assistant Beaver Scout Leaders and often Venture Scouts. The beaver colony operates a very loose form of the Patrol System, in accordance with the Scout method, whereby Beavers are divided into small groups called lodges.
