You should start by looking up the law code that is written on your summons and read it all (google it). There are provisions for tresspassing and sometimes its different for private vs commercial property.
When I was 17 I got a ticket for vehicular trespass in Cali, I looked it up and found the law also required the property owners needed to have no tresspass signs posted once every X feet.. I went back and checked out the place, there was not a sign in sight. I mentioned this to the probation officer (no judge was involved) and got the charge dismissed. Whether it was for that specific reason or something else, couldn't say, but my point is you should always read the laws you're being charged with breaking.
Anyway your friend is an idiot and got all of you busted for his stupidity.
Consult with a defense attorney and hope for the best.
