NOMINATIONS FOR 2021 NOW OPEN!

As the voice of Cloverdale’s business community, the Cloverdale District Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to announce nominations for the 2021 Clovies Awards are now open.

For the sixth consecutive year, The Clovies Awards will honour business excellence in our community and the winners will be unveiled at the Clovies Awards gala on November 17, 2021. A luncheon to honour all of the nominees will be held the week prior.

The resiliency category is new to the 6th Annual Clovies Awards in order to honour a small, medium and large business that demonstrated their business acumen despite these uncertain times. These businesses may have pivoted to meet the new needs of our economy and community, may have showed strength and determination to weather the storm, or been innovate to adapt to our changing landscape. The examples are endless and we look forward showcasing the stories of these exemplary businesses.

“Last year, we received more than 100 nominations  from members of our business community and our judging committee had a difficult time selecting the finalists due to the high caliber of the submissions. In these tough times, we need to honour the leaders in our business community now more than ever,” says Cloverdale Chamber Executive Director Scott Wheatley.

Until 2020, this gala event brought together more than 200 business and community leaders to recognize and celebrate the achievements of our nominee finalists and unveil the winners. The gala also featured a live and silent auction, on-site entertainment and a gourmet dinner at Northview Golf and Country Club.

This year, the event will be held following COVID protocols with live-streaming if permitted. Alternatively, a virtual event will be held.
