Uniforms
Scout Uniforms
All scouts should strive to be in full Class A uniform at every meeting, unless noted on the calendar. A points contest is held yearly in which points are awarded for complete uniforms.
Class A Uniform
Full Class A uniform includes:
- BSA Shirt
- BSA Shorts
- BSA Belt
- Troop 31 Neckerchief
- Slide
- BSA Socks
- Shoes (hiking boots or athletic shoes)
Note: Hats are not part of our uniform.
Class B Uniform
If noted on the calendar, Class B uniform must be worn. A Class B uniform consists of:
- Troop 31 Tee Shirt or another BSA approved Tee Shirt
- A pair of shorts (blue jeans are not acceptable)
Dues
Dues have always been part of scouting. In other Troops, dues are part of the funding for the programs that the Troop participates in and the fees for National membership. Because of our Christmas tree fundraiser, true weekly dues are more about responsibility. All boys are required to bring in $1.00 per week.
