Humboldt Trails Council will be hosting the 2024 Trails Summit at the Sequoia Conference Center in Eureka on Saturday, June 1. Doors open at 9:30 a.m. with a resource fair of trail partners, and presentations begin at 10:30 a.m. This year’s theme is “Celebrating Trail Partners” and will highlight the exciting progress that has been made in developing our trails including those under construction, in the planning phase, and the new trails you can visit today. Do not miss this opportunity to learn about, celebrate and be inspired by the partnerships that make shared paths and trails possible.

Speakers will include President pro Tempore Mike McGuire and Elaine Hogan, General Manager for the Great Redwood Trail Agency who will speak about the Great Redwood Trail Master Plan; Hank Seemann will share updates about the county’s efforts to connect and extend the Humboldt Bay Trail; Emily Sinkhorn from the City of Arcata will speak to the work being planned on the Annie and Mary Connectivity Trail, and Jesse Willor from the City of Eureka will share plans for the Bay-to-Zoo Trail.
