It's time to recognize the best businesses in Greater Vernon.
Nominations for the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce's annual Business Excellence Awards can be submitted at www.vernonchamber.ca until Jan. 6. The awards gala is March 10 at the Vernon Lodge Hotel.
“We’re really excited about the plans for the gala and know it will be another fantastic evening of celebration as we recognize a variety of businesses, organizations and individuals for their outstanding achievements,” says Dan Rogers, chamber general manager.
The presenting sponsor of the awards program is Valley First.
