Arizona State Parks and Trails is celebrating 60 years of world-class
recreation in 35 beautiful parks across the state. Last year, more than 3 million people visited our parks from around the world, contributing more than $300 million in economic impact to our rural communities. The 2018 NASPD conference will highlight parks in our Northern Region, from the rolling hills of Camp Verde to the spectacular Red Rocks of Sedona and along the trails, deserts and forests that make Arizona one of the best places to live, work and play in the US.
Just a few of the parks we’ll visit are highlighted in “Sedona Red” at the inset on the right. Thank you for your interest in joining us to promote your products and services in our amazing state!

Promoting and advancing the state park systems of America for their own significance, as well as for their important contributions to the nation's environment, heritage, health and economy.
September 1, 2017 Dear Vendors and Sponsors: For more than 50 years, the National Association of State Park Directors (NASPD) and their partners have gathered in states across the nation to share experiences and discuss lessons learned. This conference provides a great opportunity for your company to have contact with all 50 state parks directors and their staff, as well as representatives from federal agencies, and the Canadian provincial park systems. Every year hundreds of millions of people visit state parks across the nation, improving the overall health of the communities in which they serve, as well as the local and state economies. Time spent in the outdoors improves our understanding of natural and cultural resources, and helps foster a sense of stewardship of our natural environment. The continued support by sponsors and the vendor community of state park missions and operations is vital to our success and ability to provide quality experiences that create lifelong memories for visitor to America’s State Parks. In September 2018, please consider joining us at the NASPD annual conference in the Sedona Verde Valley of North Central Arizona. The Arizona park staff has selected this area of stunning and spectacular beauty and majestic red rock formation, and the Hilton Sedona Resort at Red Rock is a premium venue for vendors, sponsors and attendees. The exhibit area is ideal for you to display products, information on services, and create conversations. As in the past, breakfast and refreshments will be served close by to maximize exposure of your products and ideas. There will be a number of opportunities to sponsor events;; including meals, tours and more that will provide increased the exposure for your company or organization. The welcome that NASPD provides its vendors and exhibitors to participate in the many functions of this national conference – from direct participation on the agenda to the tours, meals and other hospitality events – is unmatched. Whether this is your company’s 1st or 20th year as a vendor or sponsor of the annual NASPD conference we extend our appreciation. There’s no doubt you will enjoy your time in the Sedona Splendor!
