AHG is a uniformed organization which creates a sense of belonging for both Girl and Adult Members. Girl and Adult Members will wear the AHG Official Class A Uniform to the majority of AHG activities. The AHG Official Class B Uniform is utilized for more casual activities.
You may purchase your uniform gear directly from the online AHGstore: https://store.americanheritagegirls.org/.  Alternatively the troop will put in a group order for uniforms twice a year: once in the fall, mid-September, and again spring/summer for the following school year.

*For information on the uniforms and insignia placement, see pages 20-27 of the Girl Handbook
