Hello,
I am new to the post and have a question about what may make you ineligible to be an adult leader.
I had a misdemeanor for violating a restraining order in 1998 and was concerned that this would automatically get me turned down from the BSA.
It was an offense due to a letter and 2 phone calls, none of them violent in nature. The restraining order was for no contact what so ever. The fact still remains that the order was violated and I pleaded no contest.
I have a 11 year old son and would sure like to be involved with him in this venture.
It was the only thing ever on my record with the exception of a few minor traffic violations.
Nothing else on my application would cause a denial.
I would appreciate a response because I would prefer not to apply if it was all for not. It was a rough time in my life and a very embarrassing situation that I just as soon not explain unless it might change the acceptance of the application for the better.
Thanks,
Ringbo
