Welcome to our 2013 Hometown News Reader’s Choice Ballot Section This section is intended to give YOU, our loyal readers, an opportunity to CAST YOUR VOTE for the businesses that provide you with the BEST dining, entertainment, places to shop, health/medical services, and just about any other service a person would need in your area. The best way to send the message out to area businesses that you appreciate their outstanding service or products is to VOTE for them. We are simply asking you to think about all of the local businesses you encountered over the last year or so…….how was your experience? Think back about the plumber that came to your rescue, and didn’t charge you an arm and a leg for that weekend emergency. Remember the contractor that transformed your mess of a kitchen into an inviting and functional part
of your home, the Orthodontist that gave your daughter that beautiful smile, the restaurant you regularly visit because of the awesome service and unequaled quality of the food. These hardworking business owners, and their employees, need this kind of feedback. Face it folks, these are tough economic times, and some businesses have cut back on the quality of their products or services. The businesses that are the BEST in their field are those that chose to maintain the high quality of their products or services that made them successful, and found other ways to make ends meet. These businesses strive every day to be the BEST in their field, and we need YOU to help them be recognized for their efforts! We are asking you to take a few moments out of your busy sched-
ule to complete the enclosed ballot and either mail it in or drop it off at our office. Your time to complete the ballot will go a long way in telling the businesses in our area that striving to be the BEST is a worthwhile goal! As a way of showing our appreciation for your time investment, we will be conducting 9 random drawings on August 28th from the submitted ballots for a weekend at the beautiful Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando! So, you have a chance to win too! The announcement of the winners will be in our IN SEASON special section that publishes on October 4th. As you recall, our IN SEASON section is quite a keepsake issue. It is full of useful information and events for the next 6 months of what we lovingly
call our “Season”. In addition to these businesses being recognized for being the BEST in their fields, each winner will also receive a certificate they can proudly display in their business stating that they were named BEST by our loyal readers. For a business owner, there is simply nothing more gratifying! Please complete the enclosed ballot by the August 19th deadline. You will not only be helping a lot of businesses in your area to be recognized for their efforts and talents, but you will also have a chance to win a weekend at the Gaylord Palms Resort. Sounds like a “win – win” situation to us!

BodyWise Specialists Introduces Ultherapy ® Ultherapy is FDA approved for non-surgical brow and neck lifts. It’s a non-invasive procedure that uses ultrasound and the body’s own natural healing process to lift, tone, and tighten loose skin on the brow, neck, and under the chin. Call now for your complimentary consultation or visit BodyWiseSpecialists.com for more information.

Regina Kaufmann, MD
“My experience as a Board Certified OB/GYN provides me the expertise to best understand and utilize this new technology. To identify the correct treatment depth, Ultherapy utilizes diagnostic ultrasound just as I used routinely for years in obstetrics and gynecology. And as a surgeon, I am very familiar with the anatomical structures below the skin that we target for best results.”
