The Saugeen Shores Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce the Top three Nominees for Business Excellence Awards in each of the eight categories offered.

These awards designate Business Excellence in the 2009-2010 time period. “This was by no means an easy job for the Selection Committee,” states Joanne Robbins, General Manager, “There are so many wonderful and deserving businesses in our community that choosing even the top three in each category was extremely difficult”.

The Committee sifted through over 2,700 nomination/comment forms. This is not a straight “most votes’ wins” process. Although the number of votes for a business is taken into consideration, the comments and insights provided by the public take precedence in the judging criteria.

Winners will be announced at the Annual General Meeting on May 5th at Lakeshore Recreation.
