Although you just need to bring yourself as you are to visit cub scout meetings, if you wish to join cub scouts, you will need a few things. All of them can be purchased at the Cub Scout Store in Tacoma (4802 S 19th). There is also a free cub scout clothing bank at the Beehive Bookstore in Edgewood (about a 15 minute drive). They are open every Saturday 10-2 but require that the uniform recipient be present. Info about the bookstore is available at http://www.beehivebooksandmore.com/. 1) blue cub scout shirt (for 1st-3rd grade) or tan scout shirt (for 4th-5th grade) 2) belt and buckle 3) Neckerchief 4) Neckerchief slide 5) cub pack number patches - 219 (3 separate patches) 6) Pacific Harbors council patch 7) world scout crest emblem patch 8) Cub Scout Book Do not buy a hat from the Scout store. Our Pack has it's own cub scout hats - they keep the same hat for their whole time in cub scouts. These are available during pack meetings and at most den meetings. Each age group has a different neckerchief, neckerchief slide and book as follows: 1st grade = Tiger 2nd grade = Wolf 3rd Grade = Bear 4th and 5th Grade = Webelos The Cub Scout Uniform Inspection Check List is a handy guide to getting the uniform setup just right. If you have any questions about what to buy, ask the staff at the scout store - they know exactly what you need. Your den leader know what you need as well. |
