The Beaver was named Magazine of the Year at the first-ever Manitoba Magazine Awards on May 8. It also won an editorial package award (for "The Boy in the Picture," a story by Ray Argyle). Its little brother, the kids' history mag Kayak, was honoured for most innovative marketing program. The Beaver, they note, published its first French language edition (Le Beaver!) this year, has a book coming in the fall, and set sales records with every single issue last year. Nice work, guys.
And, blush, my column won best column honours.
