‘Best of Bozeman’ hits milestone 21st year – voting opens July 1
The people of Bozeman and its surrounding communities are back out in the world two-fold after a period of extended isolation. While lingering effects of the pandemic continue to hamper a full return to normalcy, we’re eagerly proceeding with daily life in its modified form.
The virus hit hard but many local businesses and marquee events were able to find ways to survive – and thrive – in spite of it. The last year saw a resurgence in Southwest Montana by longtime establishments and the opening of new enterprises as our population remains in a seemingly constant state of growth.
It’s that time of year when we come together as a community and reward the efforts of local proprietors and event promoters. The most obvious way to offer them a boost is to utilize their services or attend their various celebrations, another is to give them your vote.
Beginning July 1st, the polls will open for the 21st Annual Best of Bozeman. A friendly local competition, this is the original celebration of everything we love about our town and its countless offerings. Though The BoZone sponsors this poll every year, it’s all of YOU who decide the winners of each category. This is an opportunity for Southwest Montanans of all ages to have their say in the crowning of area establishments, whether first-time winners or defending champions.
This year’s voting will again consist of a multiple choice format, displaying area favorites from previous surveys and the option to add a choice not listed. While there are many categories to represent our area’s finest, voters can decide the winners of as many or as few titles as they please.
Plan to give recognition to your favorite food and beverage hotspots, service industries, live entertainment, small businesses, nonprofits, other local destinations, and so much more. Continuing the tradition, it’s up to each and every one of you to acknowledge your Best of the Best. Log on to www.bestofbozeman.
