Training Highlight: Uniform Inspection
How
many times have you been asked the question "Where does this patch go?"
or "What do I put on my uniform?". Getting ready for a Uniform
Inspection is a great time to answer these questions! You can find the
answers yourself by looking at the Guide to Awards and Insignia. You can find it online at http://www.scouting.org/

One Oath One Law
In the BSA’s earliest days, there was just one Scouting program— Boy Scouting—and it used the Scout Oath and Scout Law. Over the years, new programs have come along and with them new codes: the Cub Scout Promise, the Law of the Pack, the Venturing Oath, and the Venturing Code.

Those other programs aren’t going
away, but their codes of conduct
soon will. Venturing adopted the
Scout Oath and Scout Law in May
2014, followed by Cub Scouting at
the start of the 2015-2016 program
year. The change will emphasize
the unity of the Scouting movement
and make it a bit easier for Cub
Scouting and Venturing to live
out Scouting’s mission and vision
statements, both of which refer to
the Scout Oath and Scout Law.
Now is a great time to switch your pack to the Scout Oath and Scout Law, as we implement the new Cub Adventures program.
Scout Oath:
On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; to help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.
Scout Law:
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

A
SCOUT IS THRIFTY, that is, he saves every penny he can, and puts it in
the bank, so that he may have money to keep himself when out of work,
and thus not make himself a burden to others; or that he may have money
to give away to others when they need it..
