Chamber announces business, citizen nominees

By Dawnmarie Fehr Correspondent

The Discovery Bay Chamber of Commerce has announced its nominees for citizen, business and nonprofit of the year.

Chamber president Cindy Patterson said gathering nominees was a little different this year, but the process has been completed.

“It was a little slower than usual, but we got nominations, and they are being announced, and the voting will start next week,” she said. “We always look forward to this, and we look forward to a semi-normal year.”

Normally, the winners of each of the three categories are announced at a gala held in January, but things this year are different due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Patterson said she hoped an event could be accommodated sometime in the spring to announce the winners. Voting will close on March 14.

To be eligible, the person, business or nonprofit must have not won the award within the last seven years; citizens must live within the 94505 zip code; and businesses and nonprofits must have been chamber members in good standing for at least one year.

Nominations are as follows:
