Uniform
Bear Scouts wear the official navy blue Cub Scout Youth Uniform Shirt and a Cub Scout Cut-To-Fit Uniform Web Belt.
- If a new uniform shirt is needed then it is recommended that you purchase the official shirt for your Scout in-person at the Dan Beard Council Scout Shop as the shirt will come with the American Flag patch, official Dan Beard Council patch, and World Crest Emblem patch pre-placed. It may also include the 1910 World Crest Ring Emblem patch, which is optional. You will just need to additionally purchase the red numerals for 20, which refers to Pack 3020 and is placed directly below the Dan Beard Council patch on the left sleeve. The appropriate Cub Scout Den Numeral patch that would be placed under the American Flag on the right sleeve is optional.
- It is best to purchase the shirt a few sizes too large so that your Scout can ideally wear it for the next four years, until graduating to a Scouts BSA Troop.
- The Cub Scout Web Belt is purposely sold long so that it can be cut-to-fit for your Scout. Leave the belt 25%-33% longer then necessary so that it will still be large enough as the Scout grows. Additional length can always be cut off, if necessary, but not added back!
- Official Cub Scout uniform pants/shorts/skorts, socks, Bear Uniform Cap, Bear Neckerchief, and Bear Neckerchief Slide are all optional.
- Please refer to the Uniform FAQ for additional information.
Handbook
The Cub Scout Bear Handbook is recommended for the Scout to have and use during the program year, but not required.
