Voting starts Friday in the second annual 4393 Awards, a reader survey sponsored by the Stowe Reporter, Waterbury Record and News & Citizen to honor the best in our area.
Readers helped to shape the survey by nominating their favorite restaurants, shops, local heroes — more than 70 categories in all.
The awards honor the 4,393-foot summit of Mount Mansfield, the highest point in Vermont. There’s no higher honor than that! The contest encompasses Stowe, Morrisville, Waterbury, Cambridge and Johnson, the communities where Mansfield looms the largest.
Participating is easy: click here and vote for your favorites.
The contest is organized into sections including food and drink (best bar, apres ski, restaurant); the outdoors (mountain bike trail, yoga teacher, ski tuner); people we love; and “best of the rest,” including best annual event, best day trip and best community organization.
Winners will be announced July 7 in a special section published in the Waterbury Record, Stowe Reporter and the News & Citizen of Morrisville, and distributed through the fall at select retail outlets. An electronic version of the section will live online until next year’s winners are announced.
Each winner will receive a frameable certificate, and advertisers — both winners and nominees — can use the 4393 logo in their advertising. Voting is open through May 12.
