2019 BEST OF NEWTON

Welcome to the “Best of Newton” 2019

Being the “best” is not something one should take lightly. The honor of being named the “Best of Newton” was chosen by the readers of this newspaper. These readers visit these stores, attend these schools and work with these doctors. Take their word for it, they’re the best.

We at The Covington News have been serving Newton County for 154 years. Certainly, things have changed over that time and we have changed right along with it. We are committed to reaching out and engaging the community; to listening to your input on the information you want to receive and the platforms by which you want to receive it.

The Covington News team is proud to honor this year’s “Best of Newton” winners. Let me tell you, we would not have been able to do this without the overwhelming response from our readers to make it truly a readers’ choice awards project.

We thank our readers for casting thousands of physical votes in hundreds of categories to honor these winners representing businesses, events, venues and organizations that you nominated and voted for.

As you flip through these pages, you will see a rich variety of what our community has to offer. Businesses that are new to the community as well as legacy businesses. Nonprofits with a long history of service in this community as well as newer programs in the area. Professionals from all walks of life that go above and beyond.

The list goes on and on.

We congratulate this years’ winners of the “Best of Newton.” This is a testament to the fabric of what makes our community great – the quality of the nominees and the passion of our people.

Wishing you the best, Jackie Gutknecht Editor and Publisher

Best of Newton is a special publication of The Covington News Published Sunday by Newton Newspapers Inc., 1166 Usher St., Covington GA 30014.
