Tenderfoots go Uniform Shopping tomorrow! 24 Feb 3 - 6pm

Dear Tenderfoots,

Tomorrow, your seniors will be showing you how to get to Scout HQ at Bishan. I understand that some of you have not been informed of this until now. I am very sorry about this; we will work harder to make sure you get information on time! Please inform your parents/guardians about this ASAP.

Fortunately, there is a direct bus to HQ from Ngee Ann! So you'll need to bring your EZ link card. As this will be the first time going down to the Scout HQ for most of you guys, do learn the route well; you will be making future trips by yourself.

The good news is that your uniform purchases are subsidized. The bad news is that you will need to pay the full amount first. Hence, please bring about $70. You will need to purchase:

Beret
beret badge
national scarf
woggle
shirt
belt
pants
socks (advised to get minimum of 2)
Tampines District Badge

Optional items:
Beret badge backing (you can make your own out of an old phonecard)
More scouts socks (please don't buy more than 4)

You will also be given nametags to sew on your uniforms. You can collect them from the Scout Shop tomorrow as well.

You will have to buy your Shoes (marching boots to be exact) yourself. We recommend you to go down to Beach Road Army Market to purchase a cheap pair that is sturdy and comfortable.

Please meet your seniors (Benedict Choong and Nasir) tomorrow at 3pm at the benches outside the auditorium. It will end at about 7pm (you will be released from the Scout HQ at 6pm).
