Thank you for your interest in our 2016 “Best of” program. This program is based off of an open ended (not prompt) survey (which means, there is no way to get on the ballot, and there are no suggested businesses to choose from). The selected winners are 100% based off of the survey results.
Here is a preview of the 2016 “Best of” categories. From year to year, we adjust categories slightly based off of consumer feedback, quality of content for the reader, trending topics, etc.
Please note, this list is finalized list for 2016, but if you would like to make a suggestion for 2017, please email bburkhart@SusquehannaStyle.com.
