Kirkville Troop 210G

This morning, Troops 210B and 210G spent some time helping with the cleanup after the Minoa Firemen's Field Days. We were lucky to have great weather and many hands to make the work go quickly!
Thank you to the Minoa Fire Department for all they do for our community!!

Troop 210 was included in the online edition of the Eagle Bulletin!

"Taking place just as the sun was coming out, East Syracuse’s parade Monday included East Syracuse Minoa’s Spartan marching band, fire, police and ambulance vehicles, village board members and local Scouts. The ceremony after began with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by the playing of “Taps” and a firing salute. There were wreath layings at the West Yates Street memorial monument for armed forces members who served in World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam and other military conflicts. Drew Spoar, the commander of American Legion Post 359, said the sacred day is to “remember with reverence” the valor and devotion of departed comrades who gave their lives in service of country."

This Memorial Day, we were proud to join the boys troop and the pack in both the Minoa Memorial Day Parade and the East Syracuse Memorial Day Parade.
Today was a reminder that freedom comes at a cost, and we pause to remember and honor all who sacrificed for our country. 🇺🇸

Some of the Scouts from Troops 210 spent time this evening placing flags in two sections of St. Mary’s Cemetery in DeWitt in honor of Memorial Day. 🇺🇸
We were lucky to have beautiful weather, and it was great to continue a tradition our troops have proudly carried on, assisting the East Syracuse American Legion, for more than 20 years. Thank you to all the Scouts who helped show respect and remembrance for those who served our country.

We had a great weekend at the Longhouse Council Spring Camporee, and the rain didn’t stop us! There was patch trading, competitions, Pinewood Derby, slushies, and lots of fun all weekend long. The girls troop even won two events! Proud of all our scouts for making the best of the weather and having such a great time together!

Last night, the Scouts of 210 had our Central Rock Gym Lock-In, and everyone had a blast and no bones were broken! 😁

The night was packed with rock climbing, games of Infected, Sardines, and hide-and-seek, plus late night pizza and board games before finally getting some sleep.

Lots of laughs, tons of energy, and great memories made together!

Tonight was Troop 210B and 210G’s first Patrol Leaders’ Council! The scouts decided on a 5-mile hike at Chittenango Falls for their June outdoor activity. They planned out each weekly meeting for June, which includes starting the Camping Merit Badge. They made sure a bunch of rank requirements the scouts still need will get done along the way!
The scouts did really well tonight, and I’m definitely having a proud leader moment. 😊
We ended the night with 3 games of Sardines, which was really fun to watch!

Last night, we with the boys of Troop 210 Kirkville, NY wrapped up the 3rd and final module of ILST (Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops).

One of the highlights was our version of the “Rock Game.” Instead of rocks, we used marbled pawn chess pieces. At first glance they all seemed similar, but as the Scouts took a closer look, they realized no two were exactly the same.

Each Scout picked a pawn, gave it a name, and shared what made it stand out. (Yes, there were some very creative names.) After placing them back into the box, mixing it around, the Scouts then had to find their pawn again.
That kicked off a great discussion:
How are we alike?
How are we different?
And why does that actually matter on a team?

The Scouts quickly connected the lesson - just like those "rocks", every person brings something different to the table. Strong teams don’t rely on just a few people, they recognize and use the strengths of everyone.

We also talked about how teams grow (forming, storming, norming, performing) and how leaders adjust their style to help their team succeed. The Scouts shared real examples from their own experiences and began thinking about the kind of leaders they want to be moving forward.

It was a great night of learning, discussion, and growth, and we’re excited to see these Scouts put their leadership skills into action in their patrols and troop!
