Tasmanian education charity wins hat-trick of national awards
Tasmania did exceptionally well at the 25th Anniversary Australian Geographic Society Awards in Sydney last night. Tasmanians won three of seven national awards (the Bookend Trust was named Conservationist of the Year; Bob Brown was awarded the Lifetime of Conservation Award; and Don McIntyre was awarded the Lifetime of Adventure Award). The night was also opened by the singing of Dewayne Everettsmith, national ambassador for the Save the Tasmanian Devil Appeal.
