Troop Uniform Policy
Scouts should wear their full uniforms. The uniform is a symbol of Scouting Spirit, and the Scouts are expected to wear it proudly. Please do not mix uniforms with civilian clothing such as blue jeans or khaki shorts.
SCOUT UNIFORM for our Troop:
• Scout pants or short: The new Switchback Pants are lightweight and combine both.
• Scout socks if wearing Scout shorts or switchbacks when you zip off the leggings.
• Scout shirt
• Scout belt
Troop 657 Uniform Exchange-Lending Closet
Do you have parts of a uniform that you have outgrown, or just don't need anymore? Do you need to complete your uniform? Mrs. Flores has volunteered to set up a uniform exchange. Find Mrs. Flores at a Troop meeting or call her at 847-462-5906 with questions.

Please be Aware
-Respect our host facility: We need to treat our facility with respect. We are guests at SS Peter and Paul.
-Parents, review your Scout's book often for progress and sign-offs. If you have questions, please contact Mr. Wilson at don_w_wilson@hotmail.com or Mr.Goray at Venturecrew308@sbcglobal.com .
-Deadlines for camp outs strongly enforced. We need to plan for these
weekends with head counts, menu planning and shopping for food. Please be aware of these cut off dates. If you have any questions about this policy,please direct them to Mr. Wilson.
-Doors locked during Troop meeting.  Our meeting starts at 7pm and if you show up late you will need to ring the bell to have someone come up and let you in, so please be on time.
-Parent pick-up: It is Troop policy that Scouts will not be allowed out of the School cafeteria unless a parent comes in to get them. Please ring the bell, and someone will come up to let you in.
