Remembering 9/11, Focusing on Service

Twenty-five years ago, we saw the best of humanity rise to meet the worst of days. First responders ran into danger. Neighbors helped neighbors. Scouts offered a helping hand by sending water, supplies, and even putting notes of thanks inside gloves meant for heroes on the front lines. That’s the duty of every Scout — to help other people at all times. Today, we take a moment to remember. Then find a way to serve. That’s how we truly never forget.

As you focus on acts of service today, Scouting America invites you to watch and share this video:

The legacy of Mississippi Scouts BSA Troop 210 lives on, and sometimes we are reminded that Scouting, while always moving forward along the path, remains firmly grounded in the legacy of those Scouts and Scouters who ensured the path was available for the next Scout.

Troop 210 would like to congratulate Rhys Galliano on achieving his life rank. The Troop also completed some administrative tasks and began preparation for the next campout. Our final closeout was listening to our OA representative about the upcoming OA events.

Yesterday, Troop 210 conducted the Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops (ILST). This is a scout's first formal training that they undertake to learn how to implement the patrol method. This training was held for the Troop's newly elected leaders and scouts that are ready to earn their First Class rank.

Troop 210 wants to recognize Mr. Ed for hosting and provided this training. Mr. Ryan attended the training to provide two deep leadership and to gain more insight in how a troop is supposed to operate. Every scout deserves a trained adult leader, and Troop 210 is proud that our adult leaders work to get that training.

Troop 210 had 4 scouts earn their Tenderfoot rank tonight. These scouts are part of the group of AOL scouts that crossed over. They also went to summer camp and went through the Pathfinder 1 program.

The Pathfinder 1 program helps a new scout get to Tenderfoot with a quickness. It is highly recommended for all new scouts. Congratulations to Troop 210's newest Tenderfoot scouts!!

Diamondhead Eagle Scout project honors veterans with flag storage shed

Diamondhead Troop 210 Eagle Scout candidate James Johnson is building a specialized shed to ensure retired American flags are preserved with dignity before their final tribute.

The last two days, Troop 210 helped Life Scout James Johnson complete his Eagle Project. James has been working several months to complete his project.

James's project was to build a storage shed for VFW Post 2880 to store flags gathered throughout the year that are to be retired. The shed is located at the Veterans Memorial at Mahulia Gardens in Diamondhead.

The work started Friday night with several scouts working with VFW members to set the post for the shed. Saturday saw the Troop coming to do what the Troop does, help its fellow scouts.

In addition to the Eagle project, the troop with VFW Post 2880 laid some additional bricks at our Blue Star Veterans Memorial.

Next stop for Life Scout James is his Eagle Board. Congratulations James!!

Tonight, Troop 210 was back at the East Hancock library. Our first order of business was to present our newest scout, Jack, with a Troop 210 neckerchief. Welcome to the Troop.

We had several scouts recognized for earning their Railroading Merit badge at TrainTastic Interactive Model Railroad Museum this past weekend. Scouts Brody, Jack, Jesse, Jaina, and Turner were all recognized for earning their Railroading Merit Badge.

Every Scout deserves a trained leader. Tonight, we recognize Mr. Ed for earning his Scouters Training Knot. Congratulations.

Tonight, Troop 210 had our mid year Court of Honor. This is a celebration of the troop accomplishments and a recognition of the individual achievement that each scout has done.

Of course there was a lot of food. Nobody left hungry. Congratulations Troop 210 for a wonderful first half of 2026, and let's finish out the year strong.
