Regular Meetings - Memorial Day to Labor Day

• Class “B” Uniform: 

  • The Class B uniform consists of a Troop, Patrol, or other Scouts BSA t-shirt, Scout-appropriate pants or shorts, and an optional scouting cap. Even though this uniform is not as official looking as the Class A uniform, it is still required to be worn clean, pressed, tucked in, and worn with pride.

Formal Meetings and Ceremonies

Court of Honor, Crossovers, Scoutmaster conference, Flag Retirement ceremony, or Board of Review or other Ceremonies or Events

• Class “A” Uniform: 

  • The Class A uniform consists of the Scout Long or Short sleeved shirt, Scout pants or Scout shorts (if shorts are worn, you must wear Scout socks), scout belt and buckle.

    Do your best to wear your Class A uniform clean, ironed, and with your shirt tucked in. A picture of the Class A uniform, with the proper insignia (patch) locations, can be found inside the front and back covers of the Boy Scout Hand Book. This online store is a good resource for the Class A uniform: https://www.scoutshop.org/scouts-bsa-collection
