Does my child need a uniform?
Does my child need a uniform?
The Boy Scouts of America has always been a uniformed body. Pack 9 requires all their scouts to have the minimum uniform and to wear it in the prescribed manner. We wear the uniform because it is a means of identifying ourselves openly with the principles to which we are committed — character development, citizenship training, physical and mental fitness. We require our Cub Scouts to wear the official Class A uniform to pack meetings, when selling popcorn and when completing non-dirty community services, such as walking in parades, flag raisings, and other activities. The shirt should be tucked in and looking sharp!
As a minimum, the following uniform items are required:
As a minimum, the following uniform items are required:

Neckerchief and slide
Belt (for Lion through Bear)
Blue shorts (For Lion through Bear), Khaki or OD Green shorts for Webelos/AOL

Each child will be required to have his own handbook. Remember to get the handbook appropriate for the program in which your boy will be participating (Tiger, Wolf, Bear or Webelos). We will have Books available for purchase at the first several meetings.
