Sedona Cares Pledge

Sedona is home to 10,000 hardy Arizonans.  These are the rules we live by, and to sustain Sedona, we invite you to live by them, too. Take the Pledge – and live like a local while you’re here.

To assure Sedona’s sustainability as a natural, spiritual wonder for generations to come, we invite you to join our culture of respect for our environment and way of life by agreeing to these 9 pledge points.

1. The rocks are red and the silence is golden. I vow to respect the natural quiet of Sedona's open spaces and neighborhoods.
2. I will be mindful of Sedona's arid environment by minimizing my water and energy use and I will be extremely careful with fire.
3. I’ll make my own memories, but not my own trails.
4. I won't risk life or limb (human or sapling) for more likes. I won't get killed for a killer photo.
5. When playing outside, I'll be ready for rapid changes in weather and random episodes of magic.
6. Leave No Trace and pack out trash - that includes TP and pup poo!
7. I will discover art in Sedona's galleries rather than making my own. Carving on trees or rocks, stacking stones, or defacing the environment diminishes nature's art.
8. If I can't find a parking spot, I will not invent my own. I will go with the traffic flow, using my turn signal often and my car horn seldom.
9. I’ll be caring and considerate wherever I go, because that's the Sedona way.

By taking the Pledge, we will enter you to win a Grand Annual Red Rock pass giving you access to 22 Red Rock Country trails. We will hold the drawing on July 16, 2022, at 4 p.m. MST.
