Some of you just DON'T GET IT
I am going to say this one more time for those who can't seem to get it. I never said anyone cannot go. As a matter of fact I went out of my way to consider those of you who have proven by your attitudes and consistently improper behavior that you are not mature enough to participate. But if you are under 18, because of liability reasons, if you are in our group, we have to require you to bring a parent. Tellico also has its own rules for minors that are posted on the property that require an adult with any minor attending.
I have no control over anything anyone else does and would never put myself in a position to run anyone else's life. So I don't care if you're sixteen or twelve years old; you come right on out by yourself and break Tellico's rules all you want and break the hell out of your vehicle and get seriously stuck and/or slide off of one of the trails and join the several people that got killed there last year.
But you are not going to do it in my group. Period.
FordMan39 will be happy to oblige since he evidently has no problem speaking for me. And I am sure that FordMan will be happy to take full financial and legal responsibility for anything that happens to all the unsupervised minors without parental approval on a trip that crosses state lines.
