The stage is set for one of the biggest nights on Peterborough’s business calendar.
The Peterborough and Kawarthas Chamber of Commerce will roll out the red carpet tonight at Showplace for its annual Business Excellence Awards, celebrating local businesses and leaders for their innovation, community impact, and success.
A total of 14 awards will be handed out, with three finalists in each category — including the PTBO Home, Garden & Cottage Show, presented by Oldies 96.7 and Freq 90.5, which is among the contenders for the Marketing and Promotion Award.
Chamber president and CEO Brenda Whitehead says for those nominated, the recognition alone carries major significance.
She adds that taking home an award is a special moment that caps off the hard work businesses put in throughout the year.
Whitehead says the annual awards night is about more than trophies — it’s a reflection of what the chamber stands for.
If you don’t have tickets for tonight, you can still follow along on the Chamber’s social media channels.
You’ll also be able to hear recaps tomorrow during the newscasts on Oldies and Freq.
Full results will be posted tomorrow morning at PtboToday.ca.
