I kind of, sorta, really think this is a bad idea. What happens in a few years when the people between 18 and 25 exceed 25? Doesn't sound very appealing.
Yeah, I kind of see your point... like, would they have to start kicking people out once they got too old.
🙁 But, I'm sure that's a decision that the group could make for itself - does it let the upper age limit rise, or choose to limit itself to it's original age bracket. And besides, there are healthy tickling communities in both northern and southern CA that the new 26-year-olds can "graduate" to when they're ready.
😉
I think the real challenge will be simply finding enough interested young people in one place to sustain a community. We welcome all comers in the Bay Area, and it's taken us about a year to consistently draw more than a dozen people to our events. Restricting that by any factor would bring us too few people to throw a decent party. An 18-25 age restriction would have given us, maybe, two or three people at our last gathering, rather than the, I think, 16 that we actually had.
Anyway, I wish Lloyd luck,
because I know he has a uphill battle ahead of him!
