[Philmont] Selecting a Crew Leader

All,

We will be having our Crew Leader selection meeting very
soon. Beforehand I have 2 questions for the group to help
me with...

1) Our contingent is made is made up of scouts mostly from
our troop, but we have a few scouts from different troops
in the area, so we have the issue where not everyone knows
each other. It is important to me that everyone have a fair
shot at being elected the Crew Leader if he so desires. So,
what are the steps a Council Contingent uses to choose a
crew leader?

2) We have a reading impaired scout who is nearly a Life
Scout, a good leader, and IMHO would make an excellent Crew
Leader. Question: Does his reading impairment issue prevent
him from being a candidate for Crew Leader? Once at
Philmont, how critical are good/excellent reading skills
for the Crew Leader? If they are, where would that be,
besides in Logistics? Can the adult advisor assist
(ARGH!!)?
