Scouts Troop 1 Hong Kong Uniform Guide

Please read the following Scouts BSA Hong Kong Troop 1 Uniform Guide 

Scout uniforms are an important part of the Boy Scouts of America program and one of the methods of scouting. Each scout gets to be part of a group demonstrated by their uniform and each group has a personal sense of identity. The scout uniform is also a way to display our scout's individual accomplishments and recognitions. We wear the uniform to associate ourselves with the principles to which we are committed - character development, citizenship training, and physical and mental fitness. The uniform is not intended to hide our individuality, but it is a way we give each other strength and support.

The Scouting movement is built on positive values. As we wear the uniform, we stand together and encourage each other to live by those principles. Scouts and adult leaders alike should take pride in belonging to this program and demonstrate it by wearing the uniform correctly.

As we travel, the scouts uniform projects an image and association of pride and respect with the individual wearing it. Remember, when you wear your uniform, you represent Scouts BSA.

The Scout uniform types are the Class A and Class B. The official dress uniform is commonly referred to as 'Class A' and the activity uniform as 'Class B', even though these are not the correct BSA terms. BSA Scouts uniforms should ONLY be worn during activities and events which further the Aims and Methods of Scouts BSA.
