Council Shoulder Patch

The Greater Los Angeles Area Council (GLAAC) patch on the left shoulder identifies the area of the country your Scout resides.  Be aware that sometimes the patch will already be pre-sewn on the uniform when you buy it from the scout store.  Please check before buying this patch.

Unit Numerals

The "3", "6",  and "1" patches on the left shoulder identify that your Scout is in Pack 361 of the Greater Los Angeles Area Council.

World Crest / World Crest Ring

This round purple patch is worn above the left pocket and is the symbol of Scouting across the world.  The World Crest Ring is optional.  One or both patches may be pre-sewn on a newly purchased uniform.  Please check before buying either of these patches.

Den Number

Tigers, Wolves, Bears, and Webelos wear the den number patch on their right shoulder.   Please consult with your den leader before purchasing this patch as each den has a different number assigned.

Webelos Colors (Webelos Only)

Webelos wear their color ribbons on the right shoulder.  Adventure pins are worn on the tabs.
