The Nipawin and District Chamber of Commerce has honoured several local businesses.

The Chamber held the ABEX Awards Thursday night at the Nipawin Legion.

Executive Director Lisa Suchlandt told northeastNOW she was pleased with the turnout for the event.

“This year was a little different than others. We normally plan it for a Friday, this year we did it on a Thursday and it was a shorter evening,” Suchlandt said.

The Legion hosted and catered the event, while two dancers with the Nipawin School of Dance performed solo routines.

Suchlandt said it’s important to recognize the hard work and dedication business owners and employees put forth each and every day, and all of the nominees were deserving of the awards.
