A Legacy of Excellence
Troop 75 has met consecutively for over 60 years and dates back to 1927. Through the years 134 Eagle Scouts have called Scout 75 home. An Eagle Scout is the highest rank available in the Boy Scouts. This shows the ultimate dedication towards self-development. The scouts and parents of Troop 75 share a common goal to prepare our youth to become the next generation of caring, public minded leaders and citizens.
Boy Scouts progress through ranks up to Eagle Scout at their own pace.
• Scout
• Tenderfoot
• Second Class
• First Class
• Star
• Life
• Eagle
Scouts that earn their Eagle Scout rank have their name engraved in one of four Eagle Scout Trophies. These are on display inside the Fellowship Hall. Recipients also have the distinction of having their name added to the back of the Scout 75 Red Knight Trailer.
Once Troop 75 members turn 14, they are invited to also join Venturing Crew 75 for high adventure activities. Youth can have dual membership, and be a member of both groups.
Youth ages 14 to 21 years old can join venturing either outright, or be dual registered in Boy Scouts simultaneously at 14 years old. Like Troop 75, Venturing Crew 75 is also youth led. Crews do more high adventure activities like rapelling, horseback riding, and white water rafting. A co-ed unit for boys and girls.

Venturing Crews have four ranks with Summit being the highest.
• Venturer
• Discovery
• Pathfinder
• Summit
Crew 75 members that achieve the Summit Award will get their name engraved on the Crew Trophy, and also have their name added to the front of the Scout 75 Red Knight Trailer.
