National Trails Day is coming up on June 6th. This is the American Hiking Society’s signature trail awareness program. National Trails Day hopes to inspire the public to seek out their favorite trails to discover and to become more involved in educational exhibits, instructional workshops and trail work projects.

Those who visit a participating State Park between now and National Trails Day on June 6, 2009 can  register to win State Parks merchandise including a set of Arizona Trails Guides, an annual pass and two-night stay in a cabin or yurt.

Interested people can download and print the registration form at the Arizona State Parks website . Then they can hike a trail at one of the parks and drop the form off at any of the following park visitor centers: Dead Horse Ranch, Fool Hollow Lake, Homolovi Ruins, Lyman Lake, Red Rock, Slide Rock, Boyce Thompson Arboretum, Catalina, Lost Dutchman, Oracle, Patagonia Lake, Picacho Peak, Roper Lake and Tubac Presidio.

Participants must be 18 to enter and entries must be completed and dropped off by June 6, 2009.
