I always thought it funny that my father, who went through Wood Badge never knew that his mother's family was a sept of clan Maclaren.
Still, wear the MacLaren tartan with pride, as we are proud of our connection with scouting!

No, sorry, I haven't gotten to make a kilt yet with that tartan.

You are correct about the wood badge program part, but anyone can wear the tartan. I guess you might get in trouble for wearing the scout uniform with the kilt though.

MacLaren from SWK
Hey Pipesndrumsnun
I just got one from SWK yesterday. When I opened the box I had to sit down and say, WOW ! Super colors. A lot better in person than on the monitor. Why did I wait so long to order. More laetr when I take it out for a trial run later this week.

I have a SWK Thrifty in Mac Laren. Looks great. Too lightweight for winter winds though. Brrrr!

Well, I'm 18 now and just waiting on my Eagle Board of Review, so there's not much really that they can do to me.
In any case, my scoutmaster gave me permission to wear it if I so desired, so I guess I have to at some point. How terrible

The thrifty is great for the summer or lounging around the house.

Great...congrats on the new kilt! Any photos yet?
Would you say the blue is a "navy blue" (i.e deep blue)?
