Conference and Showcase
March 12-13, 2026
REGISTRATION OPEN
We have had strong interest and questions from people outside the area for many years. Our local community wants to learn more and find ways to be involved. We’re excited to be moving forward with a conference to learn and share.
Over and over I’ve been asked to give presentations in other locations, in other cities about Redding City Trails and the many amenities, and the economic development this supports. And now it’s time … we can invite people here to Redding! Feels really great. Let’s reflect, share and celebrate.
– Anne Wallach Thomas, Executive Director Shasta Living Streets
