Uniforms

PACK 175 TYPICALLY WEARS THE BLUE FIELD UNIFORM TO ALL ACTIVITIES UNLESS THE YELLOW ACTIVITY UNIFORM IS REQUESTED.
SCOUTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO WEAR THEIR ACTIVITY UNIFORM TO SCHOOL BEFORE THEIR DEN MEETING. WHEN THEY DO THEY MAY WEAR THEIR ACTIVITY UNIFORM TO THE DEN MEETING INSTEAD OF THE BLUE FIELD UNIFORM.

Cub Scouts wear uniforms that display their current rank and their individual achievements. The uniform demonstrates that a Scout is part of a den, part of the pack, and part of Boy Scouts of America as a whole. When Scouts are wearing their uniform, they are representing Scouting to the public.

Parents are responsible for providing a Field uniform for their Scout typically by October or 3-5 activities after joining.

The components of a Field Uniform uniform for each rank are explained below. Pack 175 doesn’t require official uniform pants or socks, but a uniform shirt, hat, belt, and neckerchief are typical.

The Scouts in Pack 175 love to wear their uniforms. We have two uniforms our “Field” uniform and our “Activity T-Shirt”. Many scouts wear the Activity shirt to Den meetiings and the Field Uniform to Pack activities. Your Den Leader will let you know which uniform to wear.

Field Uniform

Our Field Unifrom consists of the the BSA Blue Uniform Shirt for Tigers through Webelos. Our Arrow of Light scouts wear the Tan Scouts BSA shirt. Typically scouts make the transition whenever they outgrow their Blue uniform shirt.

Activity Uniform

Pack 175 produces an activity T-shirt. Typically a Sport-Tek shirt with a simple single color print. We typically provide one when the scout joins and as-needed. Extras are available for $10 each.
