Where Do I Stick This Patch?

Patch landing places on the uniform can be confusing. Sometimes it's easier to think of them as the four quadrants of the uniform shirt. Uniform inspections should always be constructive. Often the Cub Scout or the Scout has no say in where the patches wind up. Making sure that you hand out the inspection sheets to new Scout parents before they purchase uniforms will ensure proper placement. There are many ways to attach patches to a shirt. I recommend needle and thread sewing whenever possible. Some patches never change positions. Some change as often as the wind direction. Using “Patch Magic” or other adhesive type attaching materials can be tricky. Follow the instructions completely. You can ruin an expensive shirt or other clothing in the laundry. I believe that nothing is as good as the old-fashioned needle and thread. Time tested and easy to do and make changes.  🌐 BSA Guide to Awards and Insignia:  https://www.scouting.org/resources/insignia-guide/ 🌐 Venturing Crew Uniform Guide: https://www.scouting.org/programs/venturing/about-venturing/uniform-guide Inspection sheets: 📄 Scouts BSA (Troops): https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/510784(19)_Scouts_Uniform_Inspection_Sheet_WEB.pdf 📄 BSA Adult Leader: https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/510783(19)_CS_Scouts_BSA_Adult_Ldr_Uniform_Sht_WEB.pdf 📄 Tiger Scout, Wolf Scout, and Bear Scout: https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/510783(19)_CS_Scouts_BSA_Adult_Ldr_Uniform_Sht_WEB.pdf 📄 Webelos Scout: https://filestore.scouting.org/filestore/pdf/510750(19)_Webelos_Inspection_WEB.pdf ⚜️ Note: Venturing has no “official” uniform.
