New to Scouting? Our staff can help you outfit your Scout with a uniform and all the patches to get him started. Uniform checklist.
If we don’t have what you need in stock, we can order that item for you, ship it in with our shop order and save you shipping costs (Please allow 2 weeks for this service).
Or you can have an order shipped directly to you from www.scoutstuff.org. (you pay shipping costs-payment with your credit card). Orders purchased direct from National may only be returned directly back to that location. Please see our Scout Shop return policy (Return/Refund policy need to add)

Purchasing Advancement and Awards
Some of the rank and advancement (Advancement Form) patches and insignia available for purchase in the Scout Shop are restricted. This means they cannot be purchased freely by the general public and a hard copy, signed advancement form is required for them to be obtained. This is normally the task of the unit advancement chair.
Unit advancement personnel can fax or email their advancement reports and supply needs and we can have the order pulled and ready for your pick-up. Please allow 24 hours for processing.
