Isn't the other side of this coin the showering issue. Who do they shower
with, adults or youth. Adults I believe.

In 2001 we had the same situation with a council contigent. While going
through check in, Philmont made it plan that our 18 yr was to tent with
adults even though he was on the roster as a youth.

Hi,
I am new to the group and have already learned so much from the posts. Just
by way of introduction, since you all seem to know each other already, I am
the mother of a 14-yr. old Life Scout in Troop 757 in Howard County. MD,
about 30 minutes west of Baltimore. The last time our troop went to Philmont
was in 1996. Fortunately one of the dads who went then is going again with
his younger son. Our newest Eagle Scout went to Philmont last summer as part
of an OA Trail crew. So they are our experts. We will go to Philmont next
summer July 26 * August 7 with two crews.

I have a question about tenting arrangements for our Eagle Scout who just
turned 18. The Philmont literature says that people ages 18 to 21 can either
go as adults or youth, so we put him in our youth count. But the Baltimore
Area Council says he now needs to tent with adults and not scouts. What is
the tenting policy at Philmont? We can work it either way, just need to
know.
