The Best of Botetourt 2009

The votes are in!

We asked you to pick the “Best of Botetourt County.” And you did.

And the results are right here — in more than 50 categories, ranging from best community event to the best electrician, from the best school event to the best new thing in Botetourt County, from best place to go trick-or-treating to the best new reason for living in Botetourt County.

So, what do you think? And what categories should we add for next year?

You can leave comments below.

In the print edition, you’ll see several places where we send folks online to find more photos. Here are those links:
* More photos from Party in the Park (Troutville Park voted best park and best place to take the kids for the day)
* More photos from the fishing carnival in Buchanan (voted best parks and rec activity)
* More photos from Young Life (which tied with Fincastle Baptist for best church outreach program)
* More photos from Buchanan Fireman’s Carnival (voted best community event)
* More photos from the show by Michael Lee’s music students (voted best place for music lessons)
* More photos from Roaring Run (voted best place for family hike and best spot for picnic)
* More scenic photos from Botetourt (since scenery was voted best reason for living in Botetourt)

And congrats to all the winners!
