Colony Parents

Welcome to The Canadian Path! Here you’ll find resources that will help you learn more about Scouts Canada’s youth program. These resources will also help you to support your child on his or her Scouting journey.

You’ll find a snapshot of your child’s Section (Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts or Venturer Scouts), the Journey Card that youth and Scouters use to review personal progression at the end of each Scouting Year, a guide and template for pursuing Personal Achievement badges, and a uniform diagram illustrating badge placement.

The Beaver Colony

Beaver Scouting is for youth 5 to 7 years of age. Beaver Scouts is filled with outdoor activities, games, music and sports. Beaver Scouts meet new friends, learn cooperation and develop self-confidence.

Personal Achievement Badges

Personal Achievement badges are designed to allow Scouting youth to acquire skills and knowledge in areas that are of particular interest to them, and to have that development recognized as part of their growth through Scouting. They give your child the opportunity to try something new, and to set achievable goals. Personal Achievement badges are generally pursued individually, and outside of weekly meetings.
