Join community leaders, planners, advocates, and neighbors for a high-energy day focused on building safer, more connected places to bike and walk across our region. The Shenandoah Valley Bike–Walk Summit brings together health, education, business, and local government voices to turn ideas into action for trails, sidewalks, greenways, and complete streets.

What to expect

• Inspiring keynote
• Local case studies—from pop-up projects to permanent infrastructure
• Hands-on networking with decision-makers, engineers, and everyday riders and walkers
• A showcase of regional trail and greenway plans, with ways to plug in
• Optional mobile tour to see recent projects and future connections

Who should attend
Residents, students, planners, public works staff, elected officials, developers, health professionals, and anyone passionate about safer, more inclusive mobility.

Why it matters
Trails and walkable streets strengthen our local economy, improve health, reduce traffic, and connect people to opportunity. Come help shape a network that serves everyone—kids, commuters, and neighbors of all ages and abilities.
