[quote=Anonymous]When I was a younger GS, we camped in tents (and there were no adults in our tent). When I was an older GS (12-13), we completed camping badges that allowed us to camp in tents on sites without adult supervision (so we'd do a couple of nights in a (private) campground with the nearest adults a few hundred yards away, but those adults were not "with" us in any sense -- they were available for emergencies but otherwise we did not interact with them. When I was in my mid teens, (14-15) we did unaccompanied back country hiking. Our parents dropped us off Friday night and picked us up 30-40 miles away on Sunday afternoon. So an 11 yo unaccompanied in a cabin doesn't raise alarm bells for me at all.[/quote]
