It was a big year for voting with over 190,000 votes cast in our survey. Some of the races were tight as can be, with three or four votes separating the winner from second place. Of course, here in Beaufort…we’re all winners because of the wealth of locally owned businesses in our community.
HUGE congrats to all of the winners. We’ll see you in 2021!
