2019 is the five-year anniversary of 209 Magazine and also the fifth year for the Best of 209 Awards — but the first year that we held an event specifically to recognize the many businesses and organizations that our communities selected as the “best” in their respective categories.

There are seven counties that make up the 209 area code and 209 Magazine received over 150,000 votes selecting winners in 300 different categories.

These winners were feted at the Best of 209 Awards Gala on Sept. 21. We hope to see you at next year’s event!
