18 is certainly the age which makes the most sense, though 16 is also a
reasonable age. Of course in some ways, I would argue that 21 may be the
most supportable age if alchohol consumtion will be a part of the club
activities.

And frankly, this is precisely the reason I personally supported 21 as a
cutoff age when we were discussing it.  I am still extremely uncomfortable
with the idea of anyone under 18 coming anywhere near a gathering of people
drinking.

Me too -- I totally agree in the case of alcohol (no pun intended :-)

But must there be a single sweeping cutoff?  Make the cutoff 21 for meetings
held at bars or places where alcohol is present.  Make it 18 or 16 for other
places.  Simple.
