Troop 373 T-Shirts (Class B)

There are some activities where the official shirt may get dirty or damaged. During those activities, we will typically ask the scouts to wear their Class B uniforms otherwise known as the troop t-shirts.

Troop t-shirts are typically available at each scout meeting. Shirt sales are most frequent at the start of the scout year in August, in February when the Webelos cross over, and just before summer camp season. The boy and girl troops each have different t-shirts so be sure and purchase the correct style for your scout.
