Bonner McLane Public Service Awards

TAB's Bonner McLane Public Service Awards are presented to stations that excel in assisting their communities in various ways.

Named after the long-time executive director of TAB who died in 1987, the awards celebrate the outstanding community service done annually by Texas radio and television stations.

Each award-winning station receives a $500 voucher to be used for TAB member services.

The 2008 winners accepted their awards at the Community Service Awards Breakfast, Aug. 7 at the Renaissance Austin Hotel.
