Every year the Dawson County News provides our users with an opportunity to help us name the Best of Dawson County. Each year we receive thousands of nominations in the nearly 300 categories, covering everything from the best barber to the best barbecue. This list then stays visibile all year long as a guide to the best that Dawson County has to offer. 

The list of the Best of Dawson is also printed as a magazine that can be used as a guide all year long. 

We use an open nominating process, meaning anyone can nominate their favorite business as a Best of Dawson contender, and businesses who feel they stand out are also free to self-nominate. Nominations are open to any brick-and-mortar business physically located within Dawson County. We do allow businesses that do the bulk of their work on mobile locations, such as cleaning services, construction or lawn care companies that have an office outside of Dawson County to enter, provided they can demonstrate doing significant work in Dawson County in the preceding year. 

Nominations are held during the month of December of every year, followed by voting during the entire month of January. Winning businesses are notified in February, and we will be releasing the winners list in March. 

If you were not in the contest this year, but own or operate a business that serves Dawson County, and would like to learn more about the Dawson County News and the Best of Dawson, we would love to hear from you.
