Uniform & Awards
Wearing a uniform gives
youth and adult members a sense of identification. The uniform is a
reminder of the member's commitment to character development,
citizenship training, and personal fitness. Awards displayed on the
uniform mark the progress of every Scout and leader in achieving these
goals and successfully practicing Scouting's ideals.
