"Scouting is a uniformed organization."  By wearing your uniform, you show others that you are a member of Cub Scouting. You also remind yourself to live up to Cub Scouting's ideals and the promise you have made. The official uniform also gives you a place to display the awards and emblems that show your personal achievements and those of your den and pack.

When you join Pack 1417 and pay your dues, you are provided with the following, courtesy of the pack:

• Cap
• Neckerchief
• Slide
• "1417" pack number patch
• Handbook
• Class B t-shirt

To round out your uniform, you need the following:

• Uniform shirt (Tigers, Wolves, & Bears wear blue, Webelos wear khaki)
• Uniform belt, w/ Cub or Webelos buckle.  Webelos can wear either blue or khaki, but belt loops only fit on the blue belt.
• Atlanta Area Council patch (It varies, pick the one you prefer if given a choice.)
• Den number patch (2009 Tigers are Den 2)
• World Crest patch
• Webelos only: blue shoulder tabs

The following are optional:

• Official uniform pants - blue for Tigers, Wolves, Bears, green for Webelos. (When not wearing the official pants, dark blue pants, shorts, or jeans work well for Cubs, khakis or olive drab for Webelos.)
• Uniform socks

Uniform shirts usually come with a tag attached that shows the placement of the patches, but you may wish to review the uniform inspection form for more details: Cub Scout uniform inspection sheet 

Patches may be sewn on, or try "Patch Attach" to iron them on.

You may also wish to get a red "patch vest" for organizing and displaying the patches will get for activities and events.  Those patches do not go on the official uniform.

The closest Scout Shop is at the Atlanta Area Council Volunteer Service Center, at 1800 Circle 75 Parkway, south of Windy Hill Rd.  Directions
