The leadership of Troop 100 puts an emphasis on the Scout uniform as the most visible symbol of Scouting to the community. It is our desire that members of Troop 100 display to the community their pride in being a member of Troop 100 and the Boy Scouts of America by wearing the uniform. The way a Scout wears the uniform demonstrates this pride in his patrol and the troop, as well as establishing a positive reputation for Scouting. The rules covering uniforms in the Scouting Handbook are designed to encourage scouts to wear the uniform properly and as a symbol of their individual achievement and the achievements of their troop.
