A note on the Exclusions in Some Memberships Above

Due to the legal status of the Organization the President and Clerk of the Privy Council must be over the Age of 18- thus mandating the age requirement. As well, due to the amount of work and time that must be put into a Council position, those under 13 are not able to run for office or vote. They do however, have all other membership rights including speaking before the entirety of the Guild.
