Silver Fawn Honor Roll

In 1971 the Boy Scouts of America created a special recognition for women in Scouting.  The Silver Fawn Award was the equivalent to the Silver Beaver Award which had been awarded to men since 1931.  The original Silver Fawn medal was a solid silver mule deer fawn in a seated position suspended from a green and white ribbon.  Only 382 Silver Fawns were awarded in 1971 and in 1974 the Boy Scouts of America retired this recognition. Only a total of 2,455 Silver Fawns were presented.  The Boy Scouts of American started awarding the Silver Beaver Award to women in 1974.
