Troop 380 believes that a uniform is an essential part of the scouting experience. We ask that all scouts and adult leaders work to obtain a full uniform.
No scout will ever be excluded because of a lack of uniform. If the price of a uniform makes scouting difficult for your family, please discuss your options with either the Committee Chair or Scoutmaster.
Scouts earn points for wearing their uniform properly during uniform inspection.
