The Best Has Arrived! The votes are in and the ballots counted and the 2014 winners chosen for The River Reporter’s Readers’ Choice Best Awards (fondly referred to as The Best). The Best highlights, you guessed it, the best of our community—the people, places and businesses that are worth seeking out, or perhaps discovering for yourself for the first time. Whether it’s the best place to shop, or the best service provided, or the best place to visit, The Best is a well-established resource for finding the best providers of all your essential goods and service needs. Best of all, the winners are selected by you, for you. And when we say you, we mean you the readers and the consumers. Sometimes though, even our readers can’t decide who should win and we end up with a tie. This is your handy guide to use, and it will enable you to get the best that the region—Sullivan, Delaware, Orange, Wayne and Pike counties—has to offer. We especially want to thank our readers for sharing your own list of personal favorites with all of the rest of us. The Best is a marketing tool, a device for showcasing what our community has to offer. And one of the best things is that The Best gets the word out about the availability of great products, business, services, places and more. Even if you have lived here for many years,
The Best offers a fresh perspective and may show you just what you were looking for. We hope The Best will encourage and promote creative collaboration. As you can imagine, in the weeks before The Best arrives on your newsstands, The River Reporter team has been hard at work. It’s an exciting time which is full of energy, and I would like to thank our advertising team for cheerfully making phone calls to the hundreds of winners, to our Production Manager Amanda Reed for building a creative supplement , and to you, the reader, for casting your vote. A very special Thank You to all of our many advertisers on whose businesses we all depend to support our local economy. Most exciting is that among all of this year’s winners, you will find both old favorites and discoveries that will become your brand new favorites. Flip through the pages and discover restaurants, shops, services and more, and—don’t be shy—you can already start thinking about your vote for The Best of 2014 and together we make our region the best, ever.
