There are some important youth protection standards that may impact how you register:
1. Advisors and DeMolays may not stay in the same room, unless they are father/mother/son. For Example, “Dad” Smith and Br. Joey Smith may room together. However, Br. Jones may not stay with them.
2. We need to separate DeMolays under the age of 18 and over the age of 18. If your chapter has three 14 year olds and one 18 year old they may not room together. If you need help accommodating this please reach out to “Dad” Brusoe (PWBrusoe@gmail.com) and we will see what we can make work.
3. Each room has two beds in it. Some young men bring a blow-up mattress, that’s fine. Each chapter will need to confirm with the parents of the young men that they are OK with the roommates and the sleeping arrangements.
