CORNWALL, Ontario – In an effort to include more amazing community members, the Cornwall and Area Chamber of Commerce is making public the finalists from each 10 categories recognized at the Business Excellence Awards ceremony, held on Feb. 22, 2020 at the Cornwall Civic Complex. 

“This will be fantastic because we will know who has been nominated for a particular award before the event and then everyone will find out the winner at the same time that night,” said Chamber President, Shannon Lebrun, in a press release. “This will add a great deal of excitement to our event and will really add a sense of drama.” 

Nominees will be featured in short video vignettes that will play at the awards banquet, produced by YourTV. 

“We’re taking our event to the next level,” said Lynn Chauvin, Chairperson of the event. “We’re creating a buzz and we know friends of nominees will be attending the event to cheer on their favourites.” 

Nominations can be filed online and more information can be found at cornwallchamber.com. Nominees for the Citizen of the Year, Above and Beyond and Garth Taylor awards are not subject to these changes.
