 
Whom should you approach to join your group?
Everyone loves to travel and everyone is a possible traveling companion. Think about asking:
- Your family — everyone from your brother to your distant cousin. What about a family reunion in some special place?
- Your place of worship. We specialize in religious pilgrimages and spiritual journeys.
- Your friends — who better than your friends as travel companions?
- Other places you socialize; work, community center, with your fellow alumni, country club... you get the picture — talk to everyone.
Spread the word!
It takes time to gather the troops, so you should start promoting your trip well in advance; at least six months or more before your departure. Once you have decided on your itinerary and departure date, we suggest that you get everyone together to talk about the trip. We will help you with collateral material and, if your gathering is large enough, we could even send someone to help.
How can you promote your group? The possibilities are endless, but here are a few proven ideas.
- Put a small ad in your local newspaper or church bulletin, advising people about the trip and the date and place of your informal get-together.
- Give the group itinerary to everyone you know. People love to see details and it will show that you are serious about promoting your group. You should also include the details about your get-together.
- Send a personal email out to your potential group participants about your trip.
- Put it up on the web — We can send you the digital material to make this simple.
- Create a flyer (we can help you) and have it included in your church or synagogue bulletin. You can even drop off a supply at your library, country club, etc.
