ShareThisKäthe Lemon has been named Alberta editor of the year at the Alberta Magazine Awards. Lemon is editor of Avenue Calgary magazine and editorial director of RedPoint Media Group Inc.
D.B. Scott reports on his Canadian Magazines blog:
"“To say Avenue magazine is a group effort is an understatement [she said] -- it takes all of us as well as having this vibrant city to write about -- that makes the magazine all that it is. As in so many facets of this job, I am the voice and face to the work that so many people here do and I couldn't, and wouldn't want to, do it without them. So although it's my name on the trophy, I think it really is a testament to the quality of the whole team and the creative work they do."

* Achievement in Publishing Award: Rob Tanner of Tanner Young Publishing (publishes Where Edmonton and Canadian Cowboy Country)
* Best New Magazine: Eighteen Bridges
* Best Alberta Story: Techlife, “Declaration of Independence” by Scott Messenger
