Why we wear them and how....

    Baden-Powel (Founder of Scouting) on uniforms!

    The Boy Scouts of America has always been a uniformed body.    There are many reasons for this.  But one reason stands out above all the rest.  We wear the uniform because it is a means of identifying ourselves openly with the principles to which we are committed- character development, citizenship training, and physical and mental fitness.  

    We stand together, not alone in encouraging others to live by these same principles.  Boys and adults alike should take pride in belonging to such a movement and wear the uniform as it is intended.

    The distinctive Blue and Gold uniform of the Cub Scout is undoubtedly one of the major incentives for young boys to become Cub Scouts.

    The Tiger cub uniform consists of the Tiger Cubs BSA T-shirt and hat.  It is highly recommended that the adult partners also wear the Adult Tiger Cub BSA T-shirt or Sweat shirt.
