Cub Scout Uniforms

The Scout uniform helps build pride, loyalty, and self-respect. Wearing the uniform to all den and pack meetings and activities also encourages a neat appearance, a sense of belonging, and good behavior.

Scout Closet

Pack 311 maintains a “closet” of previously used uniforms. Anyone who needs help obtaining a uniform or uniform accessory is welcome to browse the “closet” to meet their needs. Please see the Cubmaster or your Den Leader for access to the closet. If your scout has outgrown their uniform or extra uniform accessories please consider donating them to the Scout Closet for other scouts to use!
