A great night was had by all at the Leveson in North Melbourne, offering a chance for everyone who has been involved with the MIV over the past ten years to catch up, review progress so far and acknowledge the fantastic contribution made by key individuals.
Jim Lowden from Kilmore was appropriately awarded a large framed Certificate recognising his leadership and commitment to MIV Inc.The picture at left shows Dr. Frank Hurley holding aloft the award presented to Jim.
