Troop 45 has a unique annual tradition, bestowing the Troop 45 Silver Stallion Award. Similar to that of the Teddy Roosevelt Council’s Silver Beaver Award, our Silver Stallion is the highest award our Troop can bestow upon an adult volunteer. It is awarded to an adult whose actions and involvement have furthered the Troop 45 Program. The names below are but a partial listing of Troop 45 Silver Stallions.  Unfortunately, we have neither know when the troop started awarding Silver Stallions nor do we have a complete listing of all Silver Stallion award recipients. Should you either have some details about the history of the Silver Stallion or have other names to add to our list of Silver Stallion winners, please email the Troop at: troop45@troop45mineola.org
