12th Annual Best of the Emerald Coast Winners

Once again, it’s that much anticipated time of the year to reveal what companies, places and people were voted The Best by readers of Emerald Coast Magazine.

Grand Boulevard

The 2012 winners will be on display at Grand Boulevard at Sandestin on Saturday, October 13, from 6 to 9 PM along the main street of the Center. The best restaurants, retailers, service businesses, doctors, lawyers, photographers, art galleries, musicians, and many more will be out in full force showing their goods and services.

Benefiting the Junior League of the Emerald Coast, the public is invited to an evening of food, fun, fashion and entertainment to include food sampling, beer, wine, and drinks from the winning restaurants; silent auction; and live music.

“This is a great event for a good cause, commented Brian Rowland, president of Emerald Coast Magazine’s Rowland Publishing.  With over 100 winners in many special categories, there is definitely something to appeal to everyone who comes out to support the Junior League of the Emerald Coast at Grand Boulevard at Sandestin on October 13.”

Sponsors supporting this prestigious event are the Florida Lottery, Grand Boulevard, Silver Sands Factory Stores, ResortQuest, Cumulus Radio, Regions Bank, Fudpucker’s, Copy Systems, Proffitt PR, Carter & Company, and Emerald Grande at HarborWalk Village.
