Peachtree City, February 25, 2024 - The Southern Conservation Trust, in partnership with The Eden Project and Ruck 770, presents its next Trails for Troops program on March 2, 2024.

The Southern Conservation Trust (SCT) is pleased to announce its next Trails for Troops program, featuring a 13.1-mile half-marathon ruck march to start at Flat Creek Nature Area adjacent to the Fred Brown Amphitheater. Participants will embark on a scenic journey through Flat Creek Nature Area and along the beautiful Peachtree City, GA, golf cart trails.

Trails for Troops, a free program, was successfully reintroduced in April 2023 in partnership with The Eden Project and Ruck 770. The program has significantly impacted more than 80 individuals in the community who participated in various Trails for Troops activities hosted quarterly. This program offers participants the benefits of spending time outdoors in a camaraderie group setting. Group-based recreational experiences and time in healthy natural environments significantly positively impact Veterans, first responders, and their supporters.

The Southern Conservation Trust looks forward to welcoming participants on March 2, 2024, for an enriching experience celebrating our natural landscapes and the spirit of camaraderie among community members.

Registration for this free event is available online at www.sctlandtrust.org/trails-for-troops.
