Tortoise Club Competition 2011 - winners announced!

 We are delighted to announce the winners for this year's Tortoise Club competition!  The theme was to create an illustrated map of Galapagos, featuring some of the 'wildlife stars' of the islands and to highlight conservation projects that are going on to protect them.  The standard was extremely high and the entries were judged by GCT staff and volunteers. The decision about the winner and runners up was not an easy one, but here they are:

In first place Hyrum Veach, of Salt Lake City, USA:

 In second place Emily Leaver, of Tring, Hertfordshire:

In third place Hannah Graham of Leicester 

Congratulations to our winners!  Hyrum will receive a professional print of his entry, one year's free Tortoise Club membership and a Cuddlekins Tortoise!  Emily and Hannah will both receive professional prints of their maps. 

The prints are kindly provided by Calverts Co-operative - www.calverts.coop

Other Competition entries will feature on our website shortly.  Thanks to everyone who took part!
