Nominations now open for Kincardine chamber awards

Nominations are now open for the Kincardine & District Chamber of Commerce Community Achievement Awards.
“Chamber of commerce awards are important to a community because they recognize and celebrate the achievements of local businesses, fostering a sense of pride and accomplishment,” said Chris Turcotte, chamber president. “These awards highlight the positive contributions of businesses, encouraging higher standards and inspiring other enterprises to strive for excellence. They also enhance the visibility of successful businesses, which can attract new customers and investments to the area. Ultimately, these awards help strengthen the local economy and build a more vibrant, connected community.”
The chamber is inviting the public to nominate a deserving business, not-for-profit group or individual in one of 16 categories. Each award, which focuses on the specific impact the nominee has had on the community, is sponsored by a local business.
Community Achievement Awards are a staple event in chambers across the country. The ceremonies provide an avenue to celebrate communities and the people who live there, as well as providing economic benefits.
Nominations can be made online at kincardinechamber.com and then clicking on the “CAA” link. An identical link will be found on the Kincardine Chamber Facebook and Instagram pages. Nominations remain open until Aug. 9 at 5 p.m.
A panel of judges from outside of the area, with no connection to the nominees, will choose the winners in each category.
The awards ceremony is a formal, ticketed event hosted by Ainsdale Golf Course on Oct. 10. The ticket price includes admission to the event, networking, dinner, live entertainment and the awards presentation.
Tickets can be purchased by contacting the chamber via email at director@kincardinechamber.com or by calling 519-396-9333. Read More
