Since I posted this on June 25th, three people have told me about similar
problems in prior years. Sadly, this leads me to believe the Philmont
Administration hasn't given a high priority to correcting the problem.
If you have a crew with female members, my suggestion is that you station
someone outside the CHQ restrooms/showers designated for females to remind
men not to enter.

Gray" <405geezer@thegateway.net> Date: Mon, June 25, 2007 11:23 pm To: "Philmont List Member" <Philmont@troop47.com> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Cavalcade crew (616-CV) had 15 riders including 1 adult female and two 19-year old female Venturers. They had problems with adult men walking into the tent city restrooms and showers designated for females. This took place on each of the three days the crew was at CHQ. Guys, if you're going to be at Philmont, open your eyes and read the signs on the restrooms and shower houses. You don't want to be threatened with being turned in to the Colfax County Sheriff as happened to at least two supposedly tired, sleepy and definitely very rude adults earlier this month.
