July 2009

Outer Edge Adventure Awards '09

Australian adventure and outdoor magazine, Outer Edge, has launched the inaugural Outer Edge Adventure Awards. The awards are open to all Australian and New Zealand residents and businesses and cover the 2009 calendar year.

Award Categories include an Indigenous Adventure Operator of the Year award recognising Indigenous adventure operators displaying ingenuity, professionalism and environmental responsibility, and who provide a unique experience and a top time for its adventure-loving guests. Other categories target adventure tour operators, adventurers, regions and clubs.

Kayaking Top End-style

“We're after the pinnacle in adventure and outdoors exploration,” says editor, Patrick Kinsella. “The Awards are about celebrating not only big-budget expeditions, but also the multitude of grassroots efforts that are the bedrock of true adventure. We want to commend and recognise those that push themselves out of their comfort zone and over the edge in their quest for adventure.

“We also want to pay tribute to the people and organisations that lend their support and professionalism to the outdoors industry. Without them, getting adventurous dreams off the ground would be a whole lot harder, if not impossible, for everyone.”

Outer Edge is asking readers, the adventure-loving public and outdoors-associated organisations to send in their nominations over the coming six months.
Send nominations to: editorial@outer-edge.com.au Write ‘Outer Edge Adventure Awards' in the subject header and in the body of your email detail the nominee's name, contact details, the category and why they should win.
