One of the big components of Cub Scouting is the uniform. We strongly encourage parents to buy a uniform upon joining so that their son fits right in with the other boys immediately. Tiger, Wolf, and Bear Cub Scouts wear the blue button down uniform shirt and Webelos Scouts wear the tan uniform shirt in preparation of entering BoyScouts. Regardless, get a shirt sized a little larger because those little guys grow fast!
Your son will need to get a Cub Scout manual, a uniform with patches, and a den hat. A pack T-shirt is highly recommended for some outdoor activities where a full (“Class A”) uniform would be cumbersome. Following are the detail requirements and the current costs. Uniforms can be obtained from a local Scout Shop. Scroll to the bottom of the page for patch placement.
