 Safety Alert: Important Notice About Nalgene® Water Bottles
Nalgene Nunc International has directed vendors to withdraw Nalgene® water bottles made with bisphenol A from sale. Accordingly, Boy Scouts of America's National Supply Group is immediately withdrawing all Nalgene brand water bottles from sale at Scout Shops, online, and through its retailers across the country.
Safety is a top priority. Any parent or consumer who has previously purchased Nalgene bottles at Scout Shops should stop using the product and wait until arrangements are made by Nalgene to receive an alternate product. -------------------------------------------------------
