Letter from the Publisher

It’s sure been a rough year, and the same can be said for our region’s businesses and charities. Thanks to the pandemic, many have faced reduced traffic, sales and revenues. That’s why we thought it was important to continue to offer Best of Dayton this year. What has typically been an in-person event was moved online, but its goal remains the same: to help us all celebrate and give exposure to Miami Valley businesses.

Little did we know what growth we would see in participation from you, the voters. We saw a 500% increase in votes—what a rally! We encourage you to keep this sentiment rolling into the holidays in your support of these leading Dayton retailers and service providers. No doubt they will appreciate it.

We are strong when united, beyond the opinions of the day. May the light continue to shine bright for you and yours as we enter the New Year.
