UniformThe Boy Scout Scout uniform is an important part of Boy Scouting. It helps to build a sense of belonging with the group. The word "uniform" means "Conforming to one principle, standard or rule; consistant." By properly wearing the Boy Scout uniform, we show our acceptance of the ideals of Boy Scouting - the Scout Oath and the Scout Laws. The full Field Uniform is required at all Scoutmaster Conferences AND Boards of Review. Any Scout wishing to attend either of these reviews will need to be in uniform ; Shirt, Neckerchief, MB sash, Pants/shorts, belt.
Our Scouts wear the official uniform recommended by the Boy Scouts of America. The Field ( Class A) Uniform
The Activity ( Class B) Uniform
This shirt is to be worn when wearing the Class A uniform is not required
Camouflage pants, jackets, etc. |
Required Patches All uniforms should have the following minimum patches.
See the Uniform Inspection Sheet at the end of this page for placement details. |
JewelryIn addition to not being a part of the official Cub Scout uniform, jewelry can also present a safety concern. Serious injury to the wearer and others can occur when jewelry becomes entangled during activities. The pack committee strongly urges that no jewelry be worn at pack activities regardless of whether the Scouts are in full uniform or not.
|
HairHair should be kept clean and neat. Hair which extends to the shoulder or longer should be restrained.
If you have questions regarding any patch placement, please ask your Scoutmaster, Assistant Scoutmaster, or any Troop Committee member.
