>From the Philmont Registration Guide:

ADULT LEADERSHIP - BSA POLICY*
The best available adult leadership should be recruited to accompany
each crew. In keeping with the
policy of the Boy Scouts of America, there are no gender restrictions
for adult leadership at Philmont
except that each Coed Venturing crew must have coed adult leaders. Each
adult must be a registered
member of the Boy Scouts of America.
Each Philmont Expedition or group must have at least two BSA registered
adult advisors for Scout groups,
one advisor must be at least 21 years of age; the second advisor must be
at least 18 years of age. Each
crew is required to have a majority of youth participants, and the
maximum number of adults (over
21) is four (4) per crew. Participants 18 through 20 years of age may be
counted as youth or adult crew
members.

Last sentence allows 18-20 be counted as youth/adult as reqired. Proof
that even the BSA can use common sense on ocassion ;).

Hello

We have received word that our troop has received a trek for 2009. If we
have a Scout who turns 18 in February 2008. If he stays registered will
he be considered an adult or youth?

Andrew
