2010 BUSINESS AWARDS GALA
 |
Over 430 guests enjoyed
the Business Awards Gala |
The 2010 Burlington
Chamber of Commerce Business Awards Gala was a great success with plenty
of surprises and a very happy crowd. More than 430 people attended this
year's event held on April 8 at the Burlington Convention Centre. They
were not disappointed and many are calling this the best Burlington
Chamber Awards Gala ever. The evening started with a special champagne reception for
awards finalists, gala sponsors and other VIPs. This was followed by a
cocktail reception for all guests. After a terrific dinner the awards
presentations began. Chamber Past Chair, Rick Burgess, repeated his
stellar performance as the Master of Ceremonies. The highlight of the
gala each year is the videos of the award finalists and winners and this year's
videos proved to be very exciting and entertaining. These videos
(produced by Sold Right Away) will be available on the Chamber website
shortly.
In addition to the Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards, the
Chamber Business Awards Gala also featured the presentation of several
awards given by Team Burlington members.

Excellence Award winners are decided by a committee of Chamber volunteers,
