Re: Age rules vs. Reality - Question

Chuck, I have exactly this situation as well. I have a boy that turns 13 on
September 9 and JLT is the week of August 17. A reasoned conversation with our
District Executive ended up with him deciding to allow the boy to attend, he
was close enough to 13.

Further investigation seems to indicate this is a local policy decision. A
neighboring council runs a summer JLT as well but their minimum age is 12.

> Joey is 12 years old, and Star Rank. He will turn 13 about 4 days
> after the cutoff for the Summer JLT session. Therefore, he will not
> be allowed to attend. That puts him in a position of being unable to
> attend the training until he no longer needs it.
