Residents, businesses and a youth football team win honors
THUMBS UP: The San Benito County Chamber of Commerce's yearly tradition of handing out honors to citizens and businesses of the year turned out another great crop of honorees for 2008, and they're worth noting again. Cilly Fisher and Ed Stephenson won woman and man of the year. McKinnon Lumber won retail business of the year. Bianchi, Kasavan & Pope won service business of the year. Flapjack's Country Cafe won hospitality business of the year. And Earthbound Farm/Natural Selection Foods won agriculture business of the year. The chamber did another excellent job of choosing winners who represent the positive side of San Benito County. Congratulations to all the winners and thanks for the contributions you've made to San Benito County.
