Why Do We Wear Uniforms?
Why Do We Wear Uniforms?
Cub Scout uniforms demonstrate and achieve four important ideals:
Identification: By wearing the Cub Scout uniform, you identify yourself as a member of Cub Scouts and of Scouting America.
Achievement: The badges worn on your uniform give you a chance to display your accomplishments for the whole world to see. You can take pride in knowing that your efforts were worth it and your achievements have been recognized.
Personal Commitment: The responsibility to wear the uniform correctly encourages you to exercise independence and show reliability. By making an effort to display your badges and accessories properly, you practice important life skills and gain character. When worn correctly, your uniform also shows how dependable and responsible you are!
Personal equality: By wearing the same uniform as your peers, you demonstrate that you are all on equal footing. Even though your ranks might be different and your badges may vary, the uniform places you all “under the same umbrella.” It shows that you are all capable of the same great things and are all in this together!
Field Uniforms
Field Uniforms
Class “A” or “Field Uniforms” refer to blue shirts (1st – 4th Grade) and khaki shirts (5th Grade) and are typically worn for more formal occasions. Also included in Field Uniforms are the appropriate insignia (patches), neckerchief, slide, official Cub Scout belt (for beltloops), and hat.
Pack 61 is a waist-up uniform Pack, meaning that we don't care what you wear from the waist-down. Be comfortable!
When would you wear a Field Uniform? Pack meetings, award banquets, parades, flag ceremonies, etc.
It’s also important to remember that field uniforms must be tucked in at all times!

Activity Uniforms
Activity Uniforms
The Cub Scout activity uniform (often called a "Class B" uniform) replaces the official button-up field shirt and neckerchief with an informal Scouting T-shirt or polo shirt. It is designed for active outings, outdoor projects, and casual camp settings.
Shirt: Official Scouting America or pack-specific T-shirt/polo.
Accessories: Hats and belts from the official Cub Scout Uniform guidelines can still be worn, though they are optional for casual events.
When would you wear an Activity Uniform? Outdoor campouts and hikes, service projects, summer events & picnics, fun-filled day activities where official field uniforms might get damaged or dirty.
