Troop History
----------------
The 7th Georgetown (South) Scout Group
was officially formed on the 13th of September 1959 with the registration number M1718. The troop was founded because there were too many scouts in the school. The headmaster at that time, Mr Hugh, gave permission to Mr. Ibrahim Nordin, our first scouter and troop founder, to form the troop with the mere number of only 28 boys. All the recruits were either in Form 1 or in Form 2. Fortunately, there was a Form 4 scout who had just been transferred from Bukit Mertajam High School. He was promptly made the troop's first Troop Leader.
At the end of the year, the troop was led by Mr. Ibrahim Nordin with the guidance of the Troop Leader to camp at Juru. The camp was a great flop. There was no water supply as rocks from a nearby quarry covered the well. Asides from that, the beach was muddy from one end to other. They spent two miserable nights there.
At a founder's day rally, held at Francis Light School, the troop emerged first in a competition. At that time, the troop was barely 1 1/2 months old. Due to the enthuatism and spirit of the troop, a "Tramping Tour" round the island was organized. The troop started from PFS and hiked to Bayan Lepas, Malay School. A former teacher of PFS, Mr. P.A. Das was the Headmaster there. The night was spent there.
From Balik Pulau, they hiked to Jubilee Camp where they interrupted upon an all guides campfire. The next morning they woke up with the scouts suffering from blistered feet. Some had to hike barefoot back during the last leg of the Tanjung Bungah as they were too tired and painful to walk. The tour turned out to be enjoyable, tiring and painful in the consecutive order. Before the year 1983, all the recruits wore shorts but after that year, all the recruits wore long pants. 7th GT(S) is one of the top five of all troops. In the past, there were also another three patrols called Maverick, Scorpion and Mafia (1988).
