Would not recommend. As an active RT member and on the district and council training staff as an 18-20 YO ASM, and as a 21- 24 YO OA chapter adviser, many adults viewed my age in a negative light. I had been ignored, told I don't know what I am doing or talking about, and even cursed out at. All because of my age. What helped was 3 adults who saw the value in my opinions. I could say something and be completely ignored. They said the exact same thing, and it was brilliant. ASM is the way to go. They adults know them, the youth know and respect them. And they probably have more influence over the Scouts than the other adults. -
Yes, remaining with the troop as an ASM is very definitely an option. They would fill out an adult application and take Safeguarding Youth Training. There is also the option of finding (or starting) as Ship or Crew; just look at beascout.org for units in your area. There is also a new option available if they are not interested in either of those choices. Depending on the individual and their maturity level an 18-year-old may now be a Commissioner. -

We have a scout turning 18 at the very beginning of the senior year. On that date, membership in the troop is complete (I believe). However, the youth is still interested in participating in Scouting, to include OA activities for that last year. I'm looking at options; I've heard Sea Scouts and Venture Scouts go past 18, though I'm not aware of any groups in the area. I suppose I could look it up. Would rejoining the troop as an adult member be an option? What other possibilities are out there? Wondering if anyone has experience in this and what path they took. -
Correct. Most communities don't even know that they have scouts. In trying to follow your logic the best thing would be to eliminate the class b shirt and have the scouts wandering about dressed as scouts. -
