John,
Just a quick note to wish you and yours a very happy holiday season.
This past year was a challenging one for conservationists like you and me. But working together, we had some major successes, from creating green oases in
urban settings to preserving iconic landscapes that define this nation.
On behalf of everyone at The Trust for Public Land: Thank you.
No matter what holiday you are celebrating, we hope the peace and joy of the season find a place in your heart.
Sincerely,
Kim Elliot
Director of Membership
P.S. Don't forget to get your year-end gift in early so it can be DOUBLED by our anonymous patron.

John,
As the end of the year approaches, I'd like to take a moment
to describe just a few of the projects that our members and supporters
helped us bring to completion in 2019.

* Trinity Divide, California - We protected 17 miles of the
Pacific Crest Trail at Trinity Divide in Northern California,
closing one of the largest gaps in public ownership along the
trail.
* Cañon Ciruela Ranch, New Mexico - We purchased 8,947
acres and will donate it to the Bureau of Land Management. It
will greatly improve access to the Sabinoso Wilderness, which
has a history of very limited access due to surrounding private
property.
* Palmisano Park, Illinois - We installed a set of public
climbing boulders in the western end of this Chicago park. The
boulders create a new attraction in the 10-year-old park for the
local community to enjoy.
* Catamount Community Forest, Vermont - We permanently
conserved this 393-acre recreational, historic, and ecological
gem located in one of Vermont's fastest growing and most
threatened regions.
Of course, we still have a huge number of projects already
underway that we will continue to work on in 2020 - projects in
Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, Tennessee, Georgia,
Illinois, Texas, Colorado, Utah, Montana, Oregon, Washington, and
Hawai'i - and new ones starting up all the time.
I am very much looking forward to watching our programs advance in
2020, and I would like to invite you to be a part of these future
successes by joining The Trust for Public Land today.
