[philmont] Youth Protection Question

I think that is correct, you can't be a Boy Scout after your turn 18 so you
have to be an adult. Now I'm wondering if we had the 18 year old join the
Venture Crew as a youth would that make it okay for him to tent with his 17
year old scout friend? I'm going to eventually call Philmont about this but
I wanted to see what people here thought before calling.

Great question, we are going next year with a mix of venturers and boy
scouts. Having the age differences for youth does change things. If you
register as a venture crew, they are considered youth until age 21, but not
as boy scouts, correct?

We have an all male crew going to Philmont next week. The trek was awarded
to the troop but the youth are made up of Boy Scouts and Venturers. For a
long time we only had one adult over 21 going so we were going to use a boy
who recently turned 18 as the other adult. Now we have another real adult
going with them and the 18 year old wants to tent with one of his buddies
who is not quiet 18.
 
My first question is can the 18 year old tent with his friend.
 
My second question is were we okay under our original scenario with
Venturers in the mix?
 
Thanks,
