The Webelos and Arrow of Light Uniform
![]() ![]() Required:
Short-sleeved shirts are recommended since the sleeves will still "fit" when too big. The Uniform Code:
Your son or daughter
should be encouraged to wear their uniform appropriately. The shirt should always be tucked in and orderly. They should understand the importance of representing the entire BSA organization while in uniform. The inside of the handbook covers shows the proper location for all patches.
TIP: Badge Magic double-stick adhesive is much faster & easier than needle & thread. It is available at the Scout Shop or on-line. Patches You'll need to Buy:
Patches You don't need to Buy:
Any Rank Advancement Badge or Patch that your son or daughter earns will be awarded (at no cost) during the Monthly Pack Meetings. You will need to sew them on, but they are provided.
Where to Purchase Items:
To get an idea of pricing, or to order items online, visit http://www.scoutstuff.org. This is the official online scout shop. They should have the same prices as our local scout shop. Note that purchases made at our local scout shop will help support our Council, while on-line purchases do not.
Before most pack meetings we normally make a trip to the Scout Shop. You might contact the Advancement Chair if you need a patch or two - we might be able to save you a trip and pick them up for you at our cost. You are also welcome to order any needed items online or however you like.
Wearing the Uniform
In general, every Cub Scout should wear his or her uniform to all
Cub Scouting activities, including den and pack meetings, unit outings,
and any activities done with members of the den or pack.
When playing sports, going to camp, or participating in other
physical activities, a pack may opt to have the Cub Scouts wear an alternate uniform, such as an activity shirt. These are sometimes
referred to as Class B Uniforms.
Pack leaders should provide advance notice of any occasion when the youth should wear anything other than the complete uniform.
Here are some tips for wearing the uniform:
