Bass Coast Landcare Network Board Members, Staff and local Landcare Group members proudly display their Landcare Network Award.
A chilly start made way to a beautiful day last Friday for the 2019 Victorian Landcare
Awards, when a bus of 18 people from Bass Coast made their way up to the grand
surrounds of Government House in Melbourne.
This group represented a mix of local Landcare Group members, Bass Coast
Landcare Network Board and Staff members, Westernport Catchment Landcare
Network members, as well as Gippsland Intrepid Landcare Group members who
were collectively up for eight nominations for the 15 award categories on offer.
After introductions from the Governor of Victoria, Her Excellency the Honourable
Linda Dessau AC, and The Honourable Lily D’Ambrosio MP, Minister for Energy,
Environment and Climate Change and Minister for Solar Homes, the Awards
presentation was underway.
After the first few categories were announced we started to wonder if we would be
lucky to receive any awards, then came the Landcare Network Award, and the winners
were, Bass Coast Landcare Network!
