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.

 

iFLY Indoor Skydiving (Bodyflying)

Posted on Oct 21 2024 - 10:05pm

Our experience at iFly Atlanta was one that we won't soon forget!
Not only did we get to experience the sensation of skydiving in the giant iFly wind tunnel, we also received a STEM class where we learned a bit about aerodynamics. It was fun to see everyone's faces as they went in the wind tunnel for the first time! By the second flight almost everyone seemed pretty comfortable and were enjoying themselves.
We also got to see an impressive demonstration of the theory of how the wind affects different shaped and textured bodies and also water. All of this plus the pizza and Gatorade for dinner, made it a truly memorable experience.
Check out the attached photos.

Aviation Camp 2024 Success!!

Posted on Oct 14 2024 - 12:44am

We had a fantastic Aviation Camp this year! 24 Scouts and 8 adults participated in our fun filled and educational camp as we slept under the stars at the Commemorative Air Force Airbase Georgia right here in Peachtree City. We learned about aviation navigation, instruments and how to do a pre-flight inspection at the FlyT flight school and toured an Embraer 600 Praetor corporate jet in the Chick-Fil-A hangar. We also got a tour of the World War II aircraft and maintenance facility at Airbase Georgia. We also learned about aviation weather and watched a weather balloon launch by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency NOAA here on Falcon Field. We were also honored to conduct a flag retirement ceremony at the Airbase in the evening. 

Step by step Chicken Ordering

Posted on Sep 10 2024 - 1:42pm

Here is a quick walkthrough of how to buy tickets:

From the main page click “Register”




At this point, you click on this top portion- which pulls down a few drop down options. Click on T 75 - the example used Troop 175:


On this screen, you just put in the person who is buying the tickets.  In this example it’s me!


Now it’s time to choose how many tickets and where you would like them going. I selected one of each for this example:


This is the part where you put in which scout you are supporting. I made up a scout name, John Long, and typed it in here. The next blank space is the person, or persons picking up the meals. I put in my neighbor, Carolyn Long. In this case, I would pick up one meal for myself, my neighbor would pick up one meal, and my other meal is being donated to first responders.


This last section is for the payment information.  This screen is self-explanatory but remember, whoever purchases the tickets will receive an email as a reminder. There is no voucher or email that is needed to pick up a meal-you only need to give your name!
