Uniforms and Handbooks
We expect all scouts to have:
A Cub scout handbook
- The handbook your child(ren) needs also varies by level (see chart below)
- The handbook is available as a spiral or bound book, the spiral is easier to use, but probably not as durable. Your choice.
Cub Scout Uniform
- Blue shirt with patches, neckerchief, and neckerchief slide for Wolf through Webelos (1st - 5th graders)
- The only difference in uniforms by level is by the color of the neckerchiefs (see chart below)
- For Kindergartner Lions, there is only a t-shirt and hat, which are sold together.
- There is information in the handbook about where the patches are to be sewn.
- Hats are optional
