Outdoor Writers of Canada Awards

I just got back from the Outdoor Writers of Canada conference in Campbell River, British Columbia and was fortunate enough to win several awards in the National Communication Awards. I took first place in the Ducks Unlimited Wetland Appreciation Award for a column titled "Wetland Bonanza" that appeared in The Outdoor Edge, first place in the Magazine Feature, Other category for a feature titled "Bushed" that appeared in Alberta Outdoorsmen and third in the Brock McRitchie Award for a feature titled "What Little Girls are Made of" that appeared in Alberta Outdoorsmen.

Vanessa also took home some bling with a third place finish in the Magazine Feature, Hunting category for a feature that appeared in Safari magazine titled "Too Close for Comfort"

It was a great conference with some awesome craft improvement sessions, a little time for some fishing and a fun range day that put over 30 guns in my hands including some exciting new stuff from Para Ordinance, Bushmaster and Remington.
