If there's a business or person that goes above and beyond locally, the Sarnia-Lambton Chamber of Commerce wants to hear about it.
Nominations are being accepted for the 34th Outstanding Business Achievement Awards (OBAAs), in partnership with Libro Credit Union.
A full list of the categories is posted below.
Chamber CEO Carrie McEachran said they're looking to highlight those doing great work in the community.
"These are businesses, business owners, and these are people who are working at businesses," said McEachran. "It's that person that helps you when you go into a restaurant or drive thru or at the store. Anyone that you feel just goes above and beyond."
Christine Dent from Libro Credit Union said they're thrilled to be a partner once again.
"It's been 11 years, and we're happy to support this event and local businesses throughout the community," said Dent.
