After a one-year break because of COVID-19, the Best of the Brainerd Lakes contest has returned for 2021 after many requests from area businesses and residents.
The large response from the voters displays a passion to honor top businesses in our lakes area that prides itself on individual and business achievements. Area businesses work hard to earn the support of not only the local residents, but also the hundreds of thousands of annual visitors to our lakes area. We hope our contest continues to encourage area businesses to produce high quality products while delivering great customer service.
And over the years anyone could make the claim for being the area’s best. But, thanks to the “Best of” contest sponsored by the Brainerd Dispatch/Echo Journal, the voters have spoken. And today we announce the winners from almost 75,000 online votes cast to determine the top three finishers in 90 categories.
We appreciate everyone’s votes as the feedback helped us recognize the area’s best in 2021.
