American Hiking Society (AHS) will invite the public to celebrate National Trails Day\u00ae (NTD) on June 6, 2020, in two ways:<\/p>\n
1. Share social media content:<\/p>\n
Invite your community to share\u00a0why access to trails and natural space are important<\/strong>\u00a0to them. Encourage people to tag you, #NationalTrailsDay, and @AmericanHiking in their social media posts. Photos tagged with @AmericanHiking and #NationalTrailsDay will be entered into the NTD photo contest with a chance to win a gear prize package.<\/p>\n 2. The #PublicLandsProtector Pledge<\/p>\n The pledge is a simple way to take action to protect trails and fight for equitable access to quality green space, even while social-distancing. We\u2019ll provide easy actions people can take; you can create a custom call to action for your community too. Everyone who takes the pledge will be entered to win prize packages each week in May and a grand prize after NTD.<\/p>\n We hope you will join us and engage your community in the month leading up to NTD with these actions.<\/p>\n We know your time is incredibly valuable, and many organizations have limited capacity right now, so we have put together a\u00a0promotional toolkit<\/a>\u00a0(and\u00a0a special toolkit for land managers<\/a>), filled with helpful content, to help you connect with your community for NTD. Feel free to use the templates as-is or modify them to suit your needs.<\/p>\n
