April 15, 2009–In its third year, the annual “Green Awards” editorial feature in Chicago magazine’s April issue honored six individuals whose efforts in the areas of conservation and sustainability were considered groundbreaking. To salute these individuals, Chicago magazine partnered with Shedd Aquarium to hold a private 2.5-hour award reception held at the Shedd for over 125 guests. Hosted by the editor and publisher of Chicago magazine, the reception included a Champagne toast to the winners’ achievements and plentiful hors d’oeuvres and beverages.
