The uniform is an essential part of the scouting program. It not only helps identify the scouts by rank and den but it gives the
scout a sense of belonging to their Den, the Pack and to the Boy Scouts of America. The uniforms are to be worn in conjunction with
applicable scouting activities. They should be worn to all Pack and Den events, but may also be worn to school, church, or family
gatherings. The uniform may also be worn when the scout is taking part in Pack approved fund raising events such as popcorn sales.
As per scout guidelines, the uniform shall not be worn by either scouts or their adult leaders if and when they are participating
in political ventures, making unapproved stage appearances, participating in parades not related to the Pack, or participating in
unauthorized demonstrations.
Uniforms, respective badges, and insignia of the Boy Scouts of America shall only be worn by members of a Pack who are currently
registered and are in good standing. Alterations to the uniform, badges, or insignia are strictly forbidden unless authorized by
the National Executive Board.
Pack 802 only requires the Official Shirt, Neckerchief and Slide. Official pants/shorts are recommended, but clean Blue Jeans without holes
or blue dress pants/dress shorts are acceptable (green for Webelos). NO GYM Shorts or sweat pants should be worn with the Official Shirt at Cub Scout events.
