    [The Venturing program of the BSA allows the crew to choose their own garment for the lower half. I have heard that some crews have adopted the kilt.]
    The word "transitional" means you can mix and match the "old" red-oriented uniform with the new green-oriented uniform. Basically, you can wear the new pants with the old shirt and vice versa. You can also have a mixed-uniform Troop as there is no requirement from National to switch together.

    Slight correction on the Venture Crew uniforms. Venture Crews can devise their own uniform top-to-tail or not wear one at all. If they go with the official Venture shirt they are supposed to go the whole hog and wear the charcoal pants, at least at official functions.

    Where does one go to sign up for a Venture Crew that doesn't wear a uniform?
    I hope it is warm.
    Their outings would be interesting.

    Congratulations to the Eagle Scout. Sounds like it was a great venue for the kilt. Were there any photos?
