Best of the Best:The votes are in

In May and June, area residents were asked to vote for the top businesses in The Citizen readership area.
The response from thousands of readers casting their votes from Atlas, Brandon and Groveland townships was overwhelming. The results from more than 50 categories are in today’s edition and posted on our website,
thecitizenonline.com.
While the trades vary, from best pet groomer to best party store to best lawncare, a common thread runs through each business reflected in the pages of The Citizen’local support is key.
When readers receive The Citizen in their mailbox or peruse our website, each edition is full of advertisements and stories reflecting those that drive our local economy. So each week, take a few minutes and check out the businesses that make this community a great place to live.
Again’thanks to all who voted and participated in the Best of the Best reader’s choice competition. dmf
