“Being one of the judges on the award selection panel, it is truly a difficult task making the choices with so many deserving businesses in our community,” said Shurtliffe. “We once again had some well written nominations this year from all over Lennox and Addington County submitted by the public about the nominees and the positive experiences they have had within the businesses. The Lennox and Addington business community is truly the backbone of support for our community, and it is heartwarming to have this opportunity to celebrate it. We certainly couldn’t make the evening as special as it is without our sponsors, I want them all to know how much our Board appreciates them. You can see them all online.”
