Uniforms

Depending on the occasion scouts in Troop 324 may wear either the class "A" (Presentation) uniform or the class "B" (Activity) uniform. The uniform for meetings, ceremonies, boards of review and public events is called the class "A" uniform. The khaki shirt, olive scout pants, neckerchief with slide, belt, and optional merit badge sash comprise the class "A" uniform. The placement of patches on the shirt is specific. Patches are earned and must be kept current. The class "B" uniform is for less formal events including but not limited to service projects, activities, traveling, camping trips and some fundraisers. A scout related T-shirt and matching baseball cap comprise the class "B" uniform.
