Welcome !

Troop 75 is a growing group of more than 70 energetic, motivated boys ranging in age from 11 to 17. We are the original Boy Scout Troop sponsored by the Peachtree City United Methodist Church beginning in 1980. Troop 75 prides itself on being a ”boy-run, boy-led” troop. We develop leadership skills in boys with experienced Scouts acting as mentors to younger Scouts. Experienced and dedicated adult leadership is always on hand to give guidance and assistance, when necessary.

Coming in January 2024: Scouting For Food

Posted on Nov 29 2023 - 9:14am

Started in 1985 as an Eagle Scout service project by the Greater Saint Louis Area Council, Scouting for Food is now America’s largest one day food drive. In February, Scouts all over the country will collect canned goods for their communities, supplying food banks, shelters, churches, etc. with the supplies to feed those in need.

As part of the Flint River Council, Troop 75 collected over 330 items last year. The total amount collected by troops throughout our council was over 27,000.

One of the great things about Scouting for Food is that the program is nationwide, but supports local communities. Troop 75 supports the Real Life Center, right here in Peachtree City. The Real Life Center offers assistance to permanent residents of Fayette and Coweta counties who are going through a difficult time--maybe due to a job loss or illness of a family member. They provide food, clothing, and counseling assistance to raise a hand up, not a hand out.

One of Scouting’s driving principles is to do a good turn daily. Scouts at all levels of our program participate in good turns and service projects. Participating in the food drive is a great way to be a good citizen, helping to make our neighborhoods and communities better places to live. Participation qualifies for service hours. We’ll collect items such as: canned vegetables and fruits, canned tuna, chicken and salmon, soups and stews, peanut butter, jelly, dried pasta and rice, powdered drink mixes, and bottled juices.

Outings and Advancements

Posted on Nov 19 2023 - 11:12am

If you look at the calendar you will see that there are two activities / opportunities in December

Many people need Service Hours and Conservation Hours - - the SWAT day, likely working on erosion control, at Camp Thunder is a great way to get these hours and get a night of camping  - sign up

Winter Camp is also a good way to complete outstanding Merit Badges

Scout Motto

Posted on Nov 19 2023 - 11:12am

Scouting's founder Robert Baden-Powell developed the Scout Motto of "Be Prepared". This led to the inevitable follow-up question.

“Prepared for what?”

“Why, for any old thing,” he replied.

In 1907, Baden-Powell, an English soldier, devised the Scout motto: Be Prepared. He published it in Scouting for Boys in 1908. (Two years later, in 1910, the Boy Scouts of America was founded.)

In Scouting for Boys, Baden-Powell wrote that to Be Prepared means “you are always in a state of readiness in mind and body to help others.”

More than a century later, skills and the preparedness to help are still cornerstones of Scouting. 

Need one more reminder of the importance of the Scout motto? Consider the Eagle Scout medal, which represents the highest honor in Scouting.

Notice that the medal includes just two words.

Being Prepared is just one of the things that we look for in Scoutmaster Conferences and Boards of Review
