Uniforms:
Uniforms can be purchased at the scout shop, or if you are thrifty you can hunt them down at second hand shops, eBay, and Craig's list.
The pack is starting up a used uniform donation bin as well, so ask leaders if you need help obtaining a uniform we don't have very much at the moment, but we will help if we can.
(see uniform tab for pack uniform details and requirements)
