And the winner is ... Each day, all year round, The Times Leader strives to bring our readers the latest news and information about Belmont, Harrison, Jefferson and Monroe counties. As the Voice of Eastern Ohio, we work hard to educate and inform the public on a daily basis, bringing our readers details about the triumphs and tragedies that occur within their communities, across the Buckeye State, throughout the nation and around the globe. We regularly report on school activities, government meetings, accidents, upcoming events, charitable acts, traffic conditions, business developments, sporting contests and much, much more. Within our pages we also provide opportunities for our readers to make their voices heard, through interviews, letters to the editor and other methods.
That also is our goal with the annual “Best of the Ohio Valley” contest. The competition allows readers to vote on the “best” local businesses in a wide variety of categories. From the “best” audiologist to the “best” wings, dentist, hair salon and just about any other type of firm in the region, this contest allows our readers to make their preferences known. After the votes are tallied each year, we publish a special supplement that highlights our readers’ choices. This “Best of the Ohio Valley — Winners” section brings the results of the balloting to you. We are pleased to feature the selected businesses within this section, and we thank our readers for taking part in the “Best of the Ohio Valley” contest. We couldn’t do it without you!
