However, due to the ongoing economic impact that COVID-19 has left on our local business community, the Chamber has decided to waive the 2020 nomination entry fee. Businesses are encouraged to enter the respective Bizzy Awards Categories free of charge.
After the nomination process, the official voting ballot will be shared with the entire Pocono Chamber Membership. Chamber members will then vote for the business that they feel is most deserving of the award! The winners will be revealed at the televised 2020 Bizzy Award Ceremony scheduled for Thursday, September 17th at Kalahari Resort!
