Pack 13 Cub Scouts · Plainfield, IL

For families

Resources

The health form, and how to get the right uniform.

Health form

Annual Health and Medical Record

Every youth and adult who takes part in a Scouting America activity fills this out. Update it at least once a year, and give the completed paper copy to the pack.

The official form

Scouting America publishes the form. Pack 13 links to it instead of keeping a copy, so you always get the current PDF. Part A is the consent. Part B is the health history. Part C is the physical exam.

Meetings, day events, and weekend trips under 72 hours use Parts A and B. Camps and other events of 72 hours or more also need Part C.

Download the PDF and fill it on your computer. Save that file so you can update it and print a fresh copy when the pack needs one. A form filled in by hand is harder to keep current.

Parts A and B Parts A, B, and C

Both buttons open a PDF from Scouting America in a new tab. The Annual Health and Medical Record page explains which parts you need.

These pictures are from the Scout Shop. Each one includes that rank’s neckerchief and slide. Pack 13 wears one neckerchief and one slide for every grade. They are specific to this pack. We don’t have a photo of them here yet.

The shirt for each grade

Lion, kindergarten. The official navy Lion T-shirt.

Tiger, Wolf, and Bear, 1st through 3rd grade. The navy button shirt.

Webelos, 4th grade. The same navy button shirt.

Arrow of Light, 5th grade. The tan Scouts BSA shirt, with blue shoulder loops. The pants in that picture are green.

A navy button shirt can move from Tiger through Webelos if it still fits. Lion and Arrow of Light each need their own shirt.

Ask your den leader for the Pack 13 neckerchief and slide. Skip the rank neckerchief and slide in the pictures.

The Scout Shop also sells pants, a belt, a cap, and socks. Ask your den leader which of those Pack 13 wears to meetings. Council and pack patches go on the shirt after you have it. Your den leader can show you the Rainbow Council patch, the Pack 13 numbers, and where they sit.

Shop Cub Scout uniforms

The button opens the official online Scout Shop in a new tab. The shop sets prices and what is in stock. Buy the pieces your den leader named. The shop’s uniform guide lists every piece by rank.
