Letter from the Team
For 12 years, the Bethpage Best of Long Island awards program has set the
standard for excellence, and you’ve helped make it happen.
The 2017 competition garnered a record number of nominations and hundreds
of thousands of votes, another stellar year for a campaign all about recognizing
the great businesses and professionals that make Nassau and Suffolk
counties a wonderful place to live, work, shop and play.
There’s not enough words to adequately express how much we appreciate
all of you and your tremendous support of Bethpage Best of Long Island. We
are in awe of how engaged and invested nominees are in this program – from
hanging their banners, to launching their own social media campaigns and
directly engaging the people in drumming up support.
What’s the end result of all this effort? Long Islanders supporting each other,
making their communities and businesses stronger and more successful than
ever. Bethpage Best of Long Island taps into the love each Long Islander feels
for their special corner of the world, and channels it into something that brings
out the best in every participant.
There are so many ways to connect with the Bethpage Best of Long Island
program. You can join us through social media platforms such as Twitter,
Instagram and Facebook by following our feeds and searching #bestofl i. Keep
following it all year long, and don’t hesitate to send us your ideas, your input,
your complements and (yes) even your complaints. All of your feedback helps
us continue to make this competition better every single year.
Of course, we would be remiss if we also didn’t pay special homage to our
sponsor, the Bethpage Federal Credit Union, a champion of Long Island in its
own right. They are as committed as we are to promoting and supporting the
very best of everything Long Island has to offer.
As we look back on another successful year, we naturally have much to look
forward to next year. The 2018 nominations are now open, and there are plenty
more opportunities to nominate, vote and win.
Spread the word about Bethpage Best of Long Island. Keep on nominating,
keep on voting and keep on winning, Long Island!
With gratitude and good wishes,
The Best of Long Island Team
