“Redding is known as a trails community. It’s becoming part of the identity.”

This quote is from Pam Gluck, executive director of American Trails, and is part of a comprehensive story from the Record Searchlight about trail development and use in and around Redding. The McConnell Foundation’s program officer, Brian Sindt, who works on trails and open space, is quoted, too, and has played a key part over the last decade in trail development.

The story is by Laura Christman.
