Celebrating the Best
Well, here you have it: YOUR annual Best of Berks issue. It’s yours because YOU — the Best of Berks voters — determine much of its content.
Flip to page 31 to see who won top honors in this year’s readers’ choice contest. Thousands of votes were cast in 35 categories, and the honorees represent new faces and returning favorites alike. Did your picks make the cut?
I want to extend a special thank you to the Kutztown University students that helped us to write the profiles for this year’s winners, along with Professor Melissa Nurczynski. It was a collaboration near and dear to my heart as I am a Golden Bear myself, graduating with a professional writing degree from the university.
Also as part of our Best of Berks feature, we recognize those businesses that have earned 10 or more wins, achieving a Lifetime Best of Berks status, on page 48. A couple of this year’s winners are approaching that designation and may join their ranks soon.
For those who enjoy the finery of the holiday season, you won’t want to miss this year’s Living In Style feature showcasing the Bernville Cotton Candy House on page 54. It’s sure to get you in the holiday spirit.
And don’t forget to flip through the inserted Guide to Beauty and Wellness. We all deserve a bit of pampering, right?
