Joseph, I’m glad you’re connecting your brain cells and as I’m dusting off mine… As an outdoor living skills instructor from way back when I would get hired by different groups and some of those would be church groups. I promise that it is very little money if you choose to take such an endeavor but you’re getting paid to go hiking. I would take groups I’ve no more than eight out. Also for others I remember that the hiking stores because they want to sell equipment, so they want you to stay alive would have a list of other people that wanted to go out. I don’t know in today’s world with legal liability and everything else that they would have a list or I’m sure there’s some thing on the Internet of groups. Joseph, where is your group and here’s the time to throw in a commercial
