You've voted - now get your tickets for the Andersonville Honors Gala! 

April 8, 2014 

Join the Andersonville Development Corporation for a delicious dinner on the back patio of the Fireside Restaurant, an exceptional silent auction with items from your favorite Andersonville businesses, and the presentation of our third annual Andersonville Honors Awards, recognizing outstanding members of our unique business community.

 

The ticket price includes dinner, beer from Metropolitan Brewing and wine from In Fine Spirits, and supports the innovative work of the Andersonville Development Corporation.

 

Before you attend the event, votes have been cast to name the winners of our eight business-based awards categories:                

  • Welcome Addition Award                         
  • Good Neighbor Award                            
  • Arts Organization of the Year     
  • Service Organization of the Year
  • Best Place to Eat
  • Best Place to Drink
  • Best Place to Shop
  • Hidden Gem Award

That evening we will also give out two additional awards:

  • Eco-Andersonville Award
  • Mathiasson Community Service Award

In addition to these prizes, the winner of each category will be in the running for the Audience Favorite Award, which includes a $250 cash prize from our sponsors Bridgeview Bank, and that winner will be selected by the attendees that night!
