The Cub Scout Uniform

Scouts need to feel that they are part of a unit and a major step to that end is the uniform. A uniform signifies inclusion, belonging, instant recognition and wearing a uniform correctly promotes pride and builds self esteem. Following are some guidelines we ask our den leadership and parents to present, implement and uphold at the den level, which in turn will be evident at pack level.

CLASS "A" UNIFORM
Tiger Cubs: Shirt, Hat, Belt, Pants/Shorts (navy).

Wolf Cubs, Bear Cubs and Webelos: Shirt with proper insignia (blue for cubs and blue or tan for Webelos), Hat, Neckerchief and slide, Belt, Pants/Shorts (blue for cubs and blue or olive for Webelos), Socks (blue or olive) and Shoes (sandals do not always meet comfort and safety needs).

Pants/Shorts - St. Charles uniform pants, cargo pants, dress slacks or BSA pants of appropriate color

Pack meetings are usually held indoors with limited outdoor activities, therefore Class "A" uniform is requested. Jeans should be discouraged. This is an open meeting. Appearance as a uniformed unit is important and can be impressive.

Class "A" uniform is requested for outings and events as this is our "public face". Exceptions will be announced by the leadership.

It is general procedure to wear Class "A" uniform when going to and from camp and campouts. Other clothes are worn for the duration of the camp except where specifically designated by camp staff.

 


CLASS "B" UNIFORM
The general consensus is that the uniform or dress pants do not lend themselves easily to participation in some scout activities. Blue jeans would be permissible in the den meeting setting.

Scout T-shirts, sweatshirts, event T-shirts are appropriate in a very informal setting with pack and den activities and for the duration at camp.

It is understood that these guidelines are not intended to limit or exclude participation and cases where the guidelines can not be complied with will be addressed on an individual basis.
