[quote=Anonymous]We are in the same position, so I can't help with what it's like, but here is what I was told (by 2 different Boy Scout leaders) about age: to join Boy Scouts, a boy must either 1) be 11, 2) complete 5th grade, or 3) complete certain Cub Scout requirements. So for my DS who is in 5th grade and will turn 11 in July, he could technically join in early June when he finishes 5th grade, but we will probably wait and join in the fall when he starts 6th grade. So if your DS is already 11 he could join now, but unless he already has friends there, fall might be a more natural joining time with (potentially) more new scouts coming in together.[/quote]
