Hello everyone, first post here!

My name is Kyle, I am 18 years wise (Hardly wise) and have been backpacking since I was about 10 years of age, so I have a little bit of experience. I am attempting to get together a group for backpacking the "Bruce Peninsula" trail, known as "The Bruce" I have done it once before so I am familiar with the terrain and dangers (Including an encounter with a black bear). So I know what to expect, so long as we stick to a trail. The trip is designed with beginners in mind and is meant for the people who have never backpacked before that are coming long. My only issue is that 90% of the people coming are people I do not personally (Friends of friends) know or people who concern me being on such a trip. I am only inviting people I can trust, but I can't say so much for other people.

The majority of the people, being teenagers I am expecting there to be rowdiness and perhaps a little bit of drinking or smoking marijuana to occur; of course given the area (Cliff's and drinking don't match) I want to try to keep it to a minimum. I don't want to exclude people from the trip, but at the same time I don't want anyone getting hurt. So I have compiled the following solutions.

A: Four selected, experienced backpackers trained in First Aid, CPR etc. Two at the front and two at the back of the group with walkie talkies; this would help minimize the risk of someone wandering off the trail and help keep a sort of pack mentality between the forward and rear lines. Also provides leaders for each side of the group, front will adjust their speed according to the rear lines.

B: In the same token, have a selected group leader per tent section (every 2-3 tents have one leader) to watch over the people, must be responsible, not drink nor smoke. Will be required to carry a flashlight, flares and whistle. Is in charge of maintaining their group in one section of the site and not allowing anyone to wander. Makes sure their groups food is all hung up and that their cooking and cleaning their ware's properly.

C: Two main hike leaders, experienced backpackers whose main purpose is to supervise the entire group and watch for any kind of unsafe activity.

A few idea's I have come up with so far, before the Hike I also want to have a larger group discussion outlining basic rules and stuff, safety issues that we may have. Only reason I want the stuff to be so rigid (not trying to ruin fun, allowing as much as I can) is because many of these people are first time backpackers who are unaware of the many dangers they cannot see; the fact that we are going to be hiking near cliffs and I want to minimize injuries or sickness; also no deaths as a personal preference. Does anyone have any ideas? Or comments to my ideas?
