VERNON – There is still time for residents to provide nominations for the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce’s 37th Annual Business Excellence Awards presented by MNP.
Nominations in 15 categories continue until Aug. 23, 2021.

Along with the 15 categories, there is the People’s Choice Award sponsored by Total Restoration Services. It is chosen by a public vote of all nominees from the 15 categories. Voting for People’s Choice begins Sept. 13, 2021.

All nominees will be celebrated and the winners will be announced Oct. 29, 2021 as the Chamber rolls out the red carpet at the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre. Tickets will go on sale soon at vernonchamber.ca.
