troop109 10 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 My son is having his Eagle COH tomorrow and I am the scoutmaster of the troop. I have zero responsibilities tomorrow. Should my dress be scout uniform or suit and tie? Link to post Share on other sites

walk in the woods 888 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Ask your son, but, I wore a suit and tie. I chose my role as Dad over my role as Scoutmaster. Link to post Share on other sites
Stosh 3452 Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm still Dad when I wear my uniform. Stosh 1 Link to post Share on other sites
acco40 94 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 It is always appropriate for a BSA member to wear their uniform to a scouting function. Now, for you son's ECOH, I would wear your uniform but make it the "plain" one as opposed to the Panamanian General uniform so as not to distract from the real VIP of the event.

andysmom 55 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 When my son makes Eagle (crossing fingers) my husband will wear a suit and tie (he is the Scoutmaster). When he wears his Scoutmaster uniform that is his role, he is the Scoutmaster for ALL the boys in the troop. In his suit and tie he will only be the proud Dad of his son. Being the father to his son is his only job that day. Link to post Share on other sites
perdidochas 658 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 I wore my uniform at my oldest son's Eagle COH. I would wear whatever he wanted. He had no preference, so I wore the uniform I have worn for most of his scouting career. Link to post Share on other sites
