I know how important it is to have support crews. They not only provide the team moral support but also they can help us transport our extra gears, clothes, our favorite foods etc. They will make our hike more pleasant. Usually at each checkpoints, we can get Onigiri (Japanese rice balls) and instant cup noodle. I don't think we want to eat that all day long.
So I started my search for our team's support crew. Xia, my colleague, offered her help but that's not enough. So I turned to my hiking mate, Teresita. And she immediately accepted my offer and told me that she will start recruiting others (from our casual hiking groups, Anne, Mimi and Julie) Now our team is set. We got a car and a few crews.
I only asked for more supports from Thai Temple in Tokyo, Dhammakaya Temple. They allowed me to post my team's poster at the temple. I hope to hear back from some people soon.
Xia was very active. As soon as she found out that I set up the website for donation, she sent out an email to colleagues in her dept. and that's when we got our first donation from Tina Want and Yuko Bivins. Thank you very much for your support.
If you want to know what support crews do, you can find more info from http://www.trailwalker.jp/en/entrant/support_crew/ Interested to become one for our team, just let me know.
