The Wolf Cub Uniform (New Uniform QA) is designed to fulfill two functions - to be practical and to allow a more formal look. The basic uniform consists of a shirt, and a neckerchief (necker). While there is a wide variety of optional items (belts, hats, etc.) this is the basic outfit. Along with a Cub Book, these are the most important items to purchase (necker is provided by the pack).
At each meeting and formal event the full uniform is worn. For some rough-and-tumble-and-let's-get-dirty activities, only the necker is worn - and it is tied (leave the woggle at home!).
The shirt will have all the identifying badges/patches that identify to which country (Canada), council (Central Escarpment Council), and area (North Waterloo) your Cub belongs as well as Activity Badges, Stars and Awards your Cub earns. Those that don't come with the shirt will be provided. Necker and woggle (slide) will be handed out to indicate that your Cub has been invested, and are also used to indicate whether a Cub is a Sixer or a Second. The picture below shows how a 1st Elmira Wolf Cub uniform should look.
The sash is used only with the old uniform. Those with the new uniform place activity badges, etc onto their right sleeve.
The necker is the easiest way to identify which pack a Cub belongs to. Each pack has its own distinctive colours. Ours is forest green with a yellow trim and the orange 1st Elmira maple leaf. The standard way of attaching it is with the Cub woggle. The necker and the first woggle will be provided.
