More Than Just Trails: Reimagining Greenway Impacts; Emma Klues; 9-Mar-2025

Great Rivers Greenway, your regional public agency connecting together three counties with greenway trails, turns 25 this year! Hear about how a greenway is brought to life with and for our communities, and how the agency has evolved over their first 25 years, deepening their impact and exploring what else greenways can do for our region. Join us in imagining how building civic trust, transparent processes, environmental dedication, equitable economic impact, choices for active living, connected communities, public art and more can make the difference between a nice amenity and a critical piece of community infrastructure with long-lasting impact. But the question remains, how do you bring this bold vision to life across 3 counties and 120 towns of varying means and capacities in a thoughtful way?
