THANK YOU FOR YOUR NOMINATIONS!
The Olds & District Chamber of Commerce requests input from the citizens of our community for Business Awards Week in two categories: People's Choice Award and Exceptional Service Award.

Each year we encourage people of our community to get involved and nominate a business(s) they think worthy of the People's Choice Award. The slogan for this award is "$UPPORT - $ERVICE - $UCCESS - $INCERITY".

In addition, we encourage citizens of our community to nominate an employee for the Exceptional Service Award, from a business in our community who exemplifies high standards of service to you, the customer. As a customer you might look for qualities in an employee who demonstrates exceptional customer service skills by consistently offering a high quality of service and going above and beyond the call of duty to assist customers.

Here's the businesses and employees that have won over the years.
