Beavers: Grey coloured tracksuit + Group Scarf Cubs: Grey trousors or shorts, green sweatshirt or jersey, group scarf the woggal is in colour of the cub scouts six. Scouts: The type of trousors are to be decided by the troop PLC (Patrol Leaders Council). Green Shirt, Optional Green Sweatshirt and group scarf. Venture Scouts: Male Scout Association Mushroom coloured trousors, beige shirt, either group scarf or brown coloured tie. Female Scout Association Mushroom coloured trousors or skirt, beige blouse, either group scarf or brown coloured tie. Adults: Same as Venture Scouts except: Leaders have the option of wearing a green tie instead of brown. Those qulified may wear a Gilwell scarf as long as they are not with their group. >Optional items are: brown BP hat or blue girl scout hat, scout belt, >satchel (wolves), pocket knife or hunting knife and Recta compass. HeadWear be it Bush hats, berets, cub caps are no longer uniform. Knifes MAY NOT be worn with uniform. The scout belt is part of the scout, venture scout and leader uniform. A personal note about uniform trousors, I find it odd that Venture Scouts and leaders must wear uniform trousors, but scouts do not. The leg of the trousors has the same diameter at the thigh as it does at the ankle, the result being that most female members prefer to wear uniform skirts. I think the unifrom for the beaver, cub and scout section may have been slightly amended to accomondate girl scouts, but unfortunatly I don't know. -- Dave cmh004@cck.cov.ac.uk ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am a one in ten, Even though I don't exist, Nobody knows me, But I'm always there, A statistical reminder to a world that doesn't care.
