Sounds like I have a good chance of getting a nice position next year for
staff!!! (Cons dept hopefully!)
I need to call in the next few days for a staff app. Thus I need to ask a
quick question. I have it written down somewhere, but can't find all my
Philmont info with thir phone number. (It is probably buried in the very
back of my closet.) Does anyone have their telephone number. I thank whoever
replies to this email!
Thanks Mr. Roberts for those stats and info!

> Some statitstics learned from Keith, Brian and DOug (the guys in charge):
> - Every day, 350 trekkers arrive and leave, representing about 35 crews.
> - Only 25% of crews are from east of the Mississippi (so much for
listening

> - There are about 900 philmont staffers, 250 rangers.
> - All positions are *not* filled. They do *not* get as amany
applications

> - They usually fire 8-10 staff members each year, the usual reasons are

They

> - Even though 200 of the 900 staff members are women, there is very
little
> hanky panky
> - Less than 15% of staff have ever been on a trek
> - Most of the staff comes from surrounding universities, only a small

> - About 90% of trek injuries occur on the third day. They call it the
