Visit the Northeast Illinois Council Scout Shop
The Pauly Scout Shop—your local Scout shop—is more than a store—it’s your home for everything Scouting! Whether you’re joining for the first time or preparing for your next adventure, our Scout shop team is here to help you get ready.
What you’ll find
-
Uniforms and insignia: Try on uniforms, get the perfect fit, and make sure your patches are placed correctly. Our staff can help you follow Scouting America’s official guidelines.
-
Advancement and recognition: Pick up badges, pins, and awards for every rank and achievement are available as soon as your Scouts earn them.
-
Outdoor gear: Find camping essentials like tents, sleeping bags, and tools that meet Scouting standards.
-
Books and resources: Explore handbooks, leader guides, and merit badge pamphlets to keep your unit prepared and inspired.
-
Friendly, knowledgeable staff: Our team are Scouters too! They’re happy to answer questions and help you find exactly what you need.
IMPORTANT: Units who wish to order advancement patches must include a completed advancement form when ordering from either our local Scout shop or National Supply. Also, have you had recent volunteer changes in your unit? Your committee chairperson can update those who have access to the store account with our Unit Account Change Form and turn it into the Scout shop in person or via email at scoutshop@neic.org.
