The Beaver Uniform

Uniforms are a traditional part of Scouting, even at the Beaver level. Beavers are taught to respect their uniform and wear it proudly. After a Beaver is invested he is expected to wear his/her uniform to every regular meeting and to any official function. The Beaver uniform consists of the Beaver hat, vest, neckerchief and neckerchief woggle (slide). An optional blue Beaver T-shirt (available in long or short sleeves) is also available. Parents will need to purchase only the hat and vest and the optional T-shirt if you wish. They may be purchased at either of the two Scout Shop locations listed below.

New Beavers, or "Kits", wear their hat and vest only until after the investiture ceremony, which usually takes place in mid-October. At the investiture, new Beavers become "Eager Beavers" and at that time are presented with their neckerchief & woggle, their official badges and a Beaver's tail (sewn or pinned to the back of their hat), which indicates their age; brown for 5 year olds, blue for 6 year olds and white for seven year olds.

Please Note: Only the official badges should be applied to the uniform vest. Special badges or crests received for outings and events are keepsakes and should not be put on their vest, but can be applied to a 'Memory Blanket' or a jacket.
