Uniforms are an essential part of the
scouting program. As with any uniform, its proper use represents
pride in one's self and pride in the Pack.
Uniforms come in two Categories:
 | Class A: Full Uniform |
| Class B: Cub Scout or BSA Related
T-Shirt |
Class A Uniforms: 
| For more formal
events such as Den Meetings and Pack Meetings, and when Scouts and
Scouters are in public representing Pack 443, Class A Uniforms
should be worn by Youth and Adult Leaders. In all cases, a
scout should always present a neat appearance, with his
shirt tucked in and his cap on straight. In addition, Class
A uniforms should be worn when traveling to and from pack
campouts. Upon arrival at the campout, Class B Uniforms may
be worn. |
Class A uniforms consists of:
| A button down short or long sleeve BSA
uniform Shirt. Tiger Cubs and Wolf Scouts shirts are
blue. Bear Scouts have an option of blue or
tan. WEBELOS wear tan. Shirts should be worn
properly tucked in (except for female leaders). |
| Cub Scout or rank related neckerchief
with Cub Scout related slide. Slides made as part of a
Scouting related craft project are acceptable. |
| Cub Scout Related cap is optional.
A cap is recommended for use in outdoor events and during
campouts and should be worn straight. |
| A blue Cub Scout belt (WEBELOS may wear a
green Boy Scout or WEBELOS belt) |
| Cub Scout pants. While the Cub
Scout pants are officially part of the Class A uniform, Pack
443 does not require cub scout pants. As an acceptable
replacement, jeans or a nice pair of shorts may be worn. No camouflage
may be worn. We also
suggest that Nylon type pants not be worn around campfires, they
can catch fire easily! |
| Scout Socks are optional |
Class B Uniforms:
For more casual events, service projects, or
any other scouting function where the scout or scouter is likely
to become dirty or it is not practical to wear a Class A Uniform,
Class B uniforms may be worn.
Class B Uniforms consist of:
| A Scout Related casual shirt such as a
T-Shirt. |
| Scout Pants or shorts (optional),
personal pants or shorts. |
Class A Uniform
Guidelines for New Members:
As new members, here is a list of the items
that must be purchased.
| Cub Scout Shirt |
| Blue Applets for the shoulders of
the Tan WEBELOS Shirts |
| Three Fires Council Shoulder Patch |
| Numbers 4, 4, 3 |
| World Crest |
| Belt |
Class A uniforms can be either short or long sleeve.
Short sleeve shirts are generally more versatile because another
shirt can always be worn under the shirt during colder months. A Three Fires council patch
should be purchased and sewn on the left top sleeve by shoulder. Under that, you will need the
number patches to make "443". Then the last patch to
purchase is the "World Crest" it is circle of purple
with white crest. This goes above the left pocket.

*Tigers & Wolf - Wear the blue shirts
*Bears- bears have the option of wearing the blue shirt or the tan shirt. We strongly suggest if
you are new or if your son has outgrown the blue shirt, buy a tan
shirt, because the WEBELOS wear the tan shirts.
*WEBELOS 1 & 2 - wear the tan shirts. These are Boy Scout
shirts, that they can wear when they cross over into Boy Scouts
easily by just removing a few patches.
Neckerchiefs will be
provided along with their handbooks.
|
Red brag vests are optional. They are a place to put all their
patches. There is no set way to put patches on it, except you
should buy it big to last along time and to place the 3 fires
circle in the center back when they earn that (after bobcat we
give that to the scouts), then the segments circle around that |
| Cub Scout pants. While the Cub
Scout pants are officially part of the Class A uniform, Pack
443 does not require cub scout pants. As an acceptable
replacement, jeans or a nice pair of shorts may be worn. No camouflage
may be worn. We also
suggest that Nylon type pants not be worn around campfires, they
can catch fire easily! |
| Scout Socks are optional.
