Residents of North Fort Myers love the annual North Fort Myers Neighbor Reader’s Poll, where they vote for favorite businesses in the area.

In fact, this year well over 2,000 ballots came back, noting area favorites for “Best Of” awards for everything from Best Computer Store, to Best Restaurant, to Best of boat dealers, salons and florists.

The Neighbor held its “Best Of” party on Wednesday, April 14, with many of the local business representatives receiving their awards.

“This was our 11th annual awards ceremony,” said Neighbor sales associate Linda Frost. “They are wonderful people, and everyone enjoyed themselves.”

More than 125 categories of service were recognized by Neighbor readers.

Frost handed out the awards, along with MC and Breeze Newspaper’s Sales Leader Tom White.

Limited copies of the special “Best Of Issue” are available at the Neighbor office. Call 656-5248 to request a copy.
