How To Get Your Friends To Join In On The Hike
There are two ways to get your friends up Mt. Tam with you:
- Start a team and invite your friends to join on with you. You’ll raise more money and have more fun if your friends join you! You can do this by starting a team in the ‘Sign Up’ section of the site. Just click here. As a team leader, you’ll be responsible for setting up a Team Page (don’t worry, it only takes a few minutes) and you’ll be notified each time someone joins your team. Other than that, your job is just to have a great time!
- Suggest that they do a hike of their own. If you don’t want to start a team, but still think that some of your friends might be interested in hiking, please let them know about it
We’ve created a couple of templates for you to use to recruit people. Feel free to take or leave them, and edit them as you please. If you do send out recruiting emails, please copy in summersunday@atthecrossroads.org. We’d love to see what you write!

Hi ________,
I’m going on a hike this summer, and I hope you can join me! On July 24, I’ll be hiking up Mt. Tam and raising money for At The Crossroads, a great organization that works with homeless youth in San Francisco. Check it out:
atthecrossroads.org/summersunday
I’ve started a team called Team ___________, and I hope you’ll sign up for it. The hike should be a lot of fun, and At The Crossroads makes it really simple to participate and raise money. To sign up, go to: atthecrossroads.org/summersunday/signup.php, and make sure to pick “join a team,” and then select my team.
I know you are a fan of the great outdoors, and you’re a very generous person, so I couldn’t help but think of you for this hike. And your presence will help make it a really fun day for me! ATC really needs the support, and works with young people who would otherwise be falling through the cracks, who deserve to have the chance to build the lives that they want.
If you can’t join on (or even if you can), I hope you’ll sponsor my hike by going to: [url for your personal hike page]
Thanks so much for considering this; I hope you’ll be part of my team!
