2) Summary: Unique places to find Santa this year

Name: Skye Sherman Travel + Leisure

Category: Travel

Email: query-bjbx@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Travel + Leisure

Deadline: 3:00 PM EST - 12 November

Query:

Working on a roundup of unique places to find Santa this year /
creative ways people can see Santa this year -- essentially,
creative solutions to the limitations imposed by social
distancing/safety requirements due to the pandemic.

For example, West Palm Beach will have Santa in a snow globe for
safe/contact-less "meet and greets." Maybe your city will have
Santa in a drive-thru, lifeguard chair, on a firetruck, etc?
This is the kind of thing I'm looking for.

Requirements:

Want to hear from cities/towns/tourism boards/malls/other places
that present holiday programming -- tell me the unique way
you're presenting Santa this year due to the pandemic. Including
a link to a photo of your Santa in this context would be great.

Hello!

For a story I'm writing, I'm looking for pitches about
bookstores that have a strong sense of place and bring community
together (in normal times and, perhaps virtually during covid).

An example could be a bookstore in Ann Arbor that has a public
keyboard or a bookstore that's known to carry a lot of local
authors.

Requirements:

Only looking for bookstores w/ in the U.S. for this piece. Thank
you!

5) Summary: Call for U.S. Ski Resorts

Name: Kristi Dosh Forbes

Category: Travel

Email: query-bjc1@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Forbes

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 13 November

Query:

I'm working on a piece about how U.S. ski resorts are adjusting
plans for the 2020-21 season. I'm most interested in whether
reservations will be required for skiing/snowboarding, any
activities you've added this season, safety precautions, etc.

If you are able to share, I'm also interested in your estimates
for how this season will compare to the last full season - how
many fewer people are you expecting? How might your revenue or
budget be impacted? I'm a sports business reporter, so there has
to be a focus on business decisions being made this season.

If you have a press release or webpage detailing your plans for
the season, feel free to send that along as well.

Requirements:

Must be a U.S. ski resort
