Randolph is one of the communities in our coverage area and I am interested in reprinting your story Everlasting. I wondered if you would grant permission - We would provide credit to the TPL and to the author and photographer. I would probably be able to run one or two photos at most. But I think the story would provide residents here with a different perspective on community forests.

I'm not generally a writer of letters to magazines. But Covid has led us all to do new things, or old things in new ways. Kudos for an important issue in Fall/Winter 2020. I particularly was taken by the stories about unlikely hikers and others who we "traditional outdoorsy people" have not always noticed or recognized along the trails in Nature. Hooray for those who are advocating to help EVERYONE get out and enjoy this beautiful world, whether in a city park or a National Park. I confess, though, it was Steve Edward's "The Last Cricket" that inspired me to write to thank you all at TPL for a delightful diversion on a cold day in Covid Time, and for all you do to keep our world beautiful, healthy and available for ALL of us to savor.

I renewed my membership recently and always look forward to receiving the latest issue of Lands & People. One of the the things I like best about the Magazine is the coverage of TPL's work of creating parks and open space in urban areas. In the 2020 election, my city passed the Community Preservation Act which many municipalities in our state of Massachusetts have already adopted. It will encourage the creation of parks, open space and the preservation of historic landmarks through matching funds from the Commonwealth. A win for conservation!

I would like to know The Trust For Public Land policy on feral cats. Does The Trust For Public Land have anything to say about feral cats?
