The 2026 Vermont Walk Bike Summit Committee invites you to share your expertise and creative endeavors at our upcoming conference. The summit will be in person, and there will be a mix of inside and outside meeting space available. We encourage you to think outside-the-box to design sessions that can be conducted partially or completely outside (e.g. in an available outdoor “room,” while walking or biking, etc). At least one presenter should be available in person. Mobile sessions, and innovative session formats, such as facilitated roundtables, live polling, or discussion groups, are encouraged.
Download the instructions below, then complete our online proposal form by February 6th for consideration. We look forward to hearing from you!
