Host Responsibilities

Prior to Event:

Know your event well! Be sure to double-check the condition in advance. Make sure it isn't closed due to weather, etc.
Update any information ASAP by emailing contact@womenshikingcrew.com
Your group will receive a reminder 1 week before your hike so any changes will need to occur before that time.
All participants should be members of the Women's Hiking Crew - This ensures that they have signed the waiver. The waiver protects you as a host, so it’s important that they sign it.
If you post on your social media feeds, be sure to include the link back to the event so participants can sign up.
We can let you know how many participants there are. Just reach out to us here contact@womenshikingcrew.com Be sure to include your event information.

Day of Hike:

Arrive early
Be courteous and give a little time for late arrivals.
Introduce yourselves.
Ask everyone if they signed the waiver and let them know that this protects you as a host, so it’s important that they sign it. (if they are members, they have accepted this at time of purchase).
Do a head count of your group.
- Keep in mind that not everyone moves at the same pace.
- Take multiple breaks and be mindful of those who are having a difficult time.
- Unless indicated in your event, do not treat this as a race.
- If you are waiting for others to catch-up, let them rest with the group before proceeding.
Photos - Please ask permission before taking/posting pics of your participants.
Last but not least, enjoy your hike and thank you for taking the initiative to Get out and Get Moving!
