Rich is our Coast Guard Auxiliary guy. He represents all of the Sea Scout Ships within 9 Western.
Bravo Zulu on the well deserved recognition and thanks for all you continue to do for the youth.

The Silver Beaver Award is Scouting America’s highest honor bestowed at the council level, recognizing registered adult volunteers who have made an impact on the lives of youth through service given to the council. It is with great pride that the Bay-Lakes Council presents this honor to Rich Balch of the Voyageur District, Class of 2025.

Rich’s Scouting journey spans more than two decades of committed, high-impact volunteer service. Beginning in 2004 as a Den Leader and Pack Committee Chair with Pack 4172, Rich steadily grew into one of the most respected leaders in the Voyageur District. He has served as Assistant Scoutmaster, Troop Committee Chair, District Committee Member, Unit Commissioner, Merit Badge Counselor, and most recently as District Training Committee Chair — a position he continues in today.

You can join us at the Jesuit Retreat House in Oshkosh on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, for the Council Annual Meeting, Award Presentation, and Dinner, where we will be recognizing Rich. Registration and details can be found here: https://loom.ly/1phzKvQ.

Big thank you to SEAS for nestling Griffindory into her off-season home. No major work needed on this one, but the Ship has a list of fun projects to get done before splashing in May. Want to learn more? Know a 14-20 year old youth that longs for adventure in, on, and around the water? PM or join at beascout.org Sea Scout Ships 53081
