The virtual setting for the event was not the only thing to make the 2021 awards ceremony unique. This year there were 11 categories of businesses where previously there had been eight. Patty Brown, the recently retired executive director of the chamber and the host of the event, explained that the chamber went from nine to 11 categories to ensure that each group had about the same number of businesses.
