I have done my homework...3 1/2 months of it. I've checked all the boy scouts in my county. I knew they were connected, and 14 is the minimum age here to be an explorer. 16 is for ride-alongs. I don't meant to sound bitchy...sorry.

I can say that in MS, explorer programs are still attached to the Boy Scouts. Out in Cali though I'm not sure. 15 is the minimum age to be an explorer over here, but as Busy stated its gonna be more of a geography factor. Good luck as well!

you need to actually take the time and do your own homework here... if explorer posts are still connected with the Boy Scouts of America, don't you think that would be a good place to start? how about contact any of the ambulance providers, such...

I just turned 14 about a week ago, and for months, I have been looking for an Ems explorer post in my area. The nearest one is about 40-50 miles away and it would be nearly impossible to travel there all the time. I live in ALameda County and I ca...

About Me:
I'm Katie. I am fourteen, single-not looking, and I want to be a paramedic. Not many people want to help answer my questions because I guess they don't know the answer. This is not a joke. People tend not to take kids seriously, but I know that I want to do this and I want to learn what it involves before I get too far into it. Please don't phase me out because I'm young!
