his week's edition recognizes winners of our Best of the Weekly readers’ choice awards. Some winners have built a reputation for selling quality products or reliable service. Others have appealed to their clients for votes. Either way, winners have demonstrated how they connect with customers in ways that surpass others in their industries. Congratulations, winners! We launched this year's contest May 3 by posting ballots in our print and online editions. Readers had until May 31 to vote for their favorites in more than 90 categories, such as Best Bar, Best Barbecue, Best Bank and Best Bookstore. The newsroom tallied thousands of votes. The sales staff alerted companies of their victories. We've followed the same process since 2016, but we added a reception this year to recognize winners. We invited winners from all three of our weekly newspapers to a reception June 18 at The Portrait Gallery Restaurant and Bar in Matthews. Winners got see VICK, Page 2A
