No nations are now open for the 16th annual Haliburton Highlands Chamber of
Commerce’s Business and Community Achievement Awards.
“As with every year, we are excited to see this year’s nominations and learn more about the stories behind them,”
said Amanda Conn, executive director of the Haliburton Highlands Chamber of Commerce.
Mark Bell, the board president of Haliburton Highlands Chamber of Commerce, added, “we have so many excellent businesses, impactful not-for-profits, and amazing individuals in the County to recognize, let’s make sure they
all get the nominations they deserve.”
New this year is an express nomination process, which the chamber is hoping the community will use to generate even more nominations. The Awardify Platform will be used by the public and chamber members to nominate businesses and individuals.
The nominee can also supplement the nomination with additional information.
The chamber will be accepting nominations in 14 categories this year; businesswoman of the year, employer
of the year, and Highlander of the year, among many other categories. Nominations close at 11:59 p.m. Sept. 27. Nominees will then have until Oct. 3 to review their nominations and add supplementary information. Winners will be announced at this year’s gala on Oct. 25. The gala will conclude small business week in Haliburton
County and tickets for it went on sale Sept. 1.
