The uniform is one of the methods of delivering the Scouting program.  In addition to creating a sense of belonging, the uniform gives a Scout the ability to display their personal achievements. 

Class "A" Uniform refers to the blue or khaki (for Scouts in fourth and fifth grade) button-down shirt, a neckerchief, rank-appropriate slide, and patches identifying our Council and Pack. The Class A uniform also includes optional pieces like a hat, belt, and pants.

Class "B" Uniform or 'BSA Activity Uniform' simply refers to wearing a Cub Scout t-shirt such as our Pack 229 t-shirt or sweat shirt.

On the advancement trail, a Cub Scout progresses towards a badge of rank based on their grade. They need not have earned the previous rank in order to earn the next.  Each of the ranks in Cub Scouting has its own requirements that are age appropriate, so earning a rank below a Cub Scout’s current grade is not permitted. As a Cub Scout advances through the ranks, the requirements get more challenging, to match the new skills and abilities they have learned.
