Hi there,

I’d like you to join me on an exclu­sive climb­ing expe­di­tion to the of sum­mit Mount Hood in June, 2015. No expe­ri­ence is nec­es­sary. You and a small group will receive alpine climb­ing instruc­tion, I will be your guide, and bar­ring inclement weath­er, we will stand togeth­er for a tri­umphant sum­mit shot at the top of Ore­gon’s tallest peak.

If you’ve ever been part of a climb­ing team before, you under­stand that the bond you form on a moun­tain can last a life­time. That’s why every year I lead a climb to sup­port Big City Moun­taineers, a non-prof­it orga­ni­za­tion that deliv­ers wilder­ness men­tor­ing expe­ri­ences to under-resourced teens.

Encour­aged by BCM’s high­ly effec­tive pro­gram­ming, I joined the Board of Direc­tors and became an advo­cate for its Sum­mit for Some­one pro­gram. My work with the orga­ni­za­tion allows me to live out my core prin­ci­pal: to give back more than you take.

Please join me in sup­port­ing a tru­ly remark­able orga­ni­za­tion by accom­pa­ny­ing me on an unfor­get­table climb this sum­mer. The team will be small, giv­ing us time to get to know one anoth­er. I look for­ward to receiv­ing your RSVP.

Sin­cere­ly,

 
Ed Vies­turs
