What’s the best community event in Botetourt County?
Who’s the best rec league coach in Botetourt County?
You tell us!
Last year, voters in our Best of Botetourt reader poll bestowed that honor on the Mountain Magic festival in Buchanan, followed by the Buchanan Carnival and Relay for Life.
In 2010 and 2009, voters picked the same three events, just in a different order: Then it was the Buchanan Carnival, followed by Mountain Magic and Relay for Life.
What will the top events be this year?
Voting is now open in our fourth annual Best of Botetourt reader survey.
You can find the voting form right here (or over in the right-hand rail.)
The voting is open through midnight on Sunday, March 11; we’ll publish the results in our April 20 print edition.
A few new wrinkles: To make it easier to vote, we’ve gone ahead and listed the top six finishers last year in the business categories — although, as always, you can cast a write-in vote if your favorite isn’t already listed.
If you’ve got someone or some thing you think should be recognized, feel free to start a campaign to drum up votes.
Is there someone or something who should be recognized who doesn’t fit into a category? We always have our “best thing not on this list.”
Happy voting!
Here’s who won in 2011 and 2010 and 2009.
Got friends in other places? We also have Best Of contests underway in Salem, Southwest Roanoke County and the New River Valley.
