"A Scout smiles and whistles under all circumstances." - Sir Robert Baden-Powell

Uniforms & Supplies

The uniform makes the Boy Scout troop visible as a force for good and creates a positive youth image in the community. Boy Scouting is an action program, and wearing the uniform is an action that shows each Boy Scout's commitment to the aims and purposes of Scouting. The uniform gives the Boy Scout identity in a world brotherhood of youth who believe in the same ideals. The uniform is practical attire for Boy Scout activities and provides a way for Boy Scouts to wear the badges that show what they have accomplished.

All boys and registered adult leaders should wear the complete uniform. Special deals on new uniforms are available through the Scout Store in Pontiac. Locally, uniforms and some scout equipment can be purchased at Dunhams Sporting Goods in Waterford.

We advise getting a short sleeve shirt with room to grow. Placement of badges, patches, etc., is described in the Scout Handbook or on this form.
