This is the third year that staff from the Department of the Environment and Energy in Canberra have supported our association with an Ice Bucket Challenge. The event, now known as The Scott Lisle Memorial Ice Bucket Challenge, is held in memory of a former colleague. We would like to thank Tara McGowan and Phil Bates who coordinate the event, and everyone who generously donated. A fantastic $7,000 was raised. Thank you for the continued support!
