Okay Ambergris and Caye Caulker, it's time to nominate friends, colleagues, favorite businesses, or perhaps yourselves, for BTB Awards. Given our 2 caye's charisma, we should dominate BTB's tourism awards. But we have to vote! How to do that is explained below. It's pretty easy but the voting ends March 15. Some of the categories are obscure, but the obvious ones are

Environmental organization of the year
Hotel of the Year
Small Hotel of the Year
Restaurant of the Year
Tour Operator of the Year
Tour Guide of the Year
Small Vendor of the Year

To vote:

Go to www.travelbelize.org

Scroll down to bottom of page

Click on the (hard to find) black box on the bottom right hand side of
screen

Get out the phone book if necessary and be ready with you nominee's name address, phone number, and a brief statement of why the nominee is deserving.

Cheers to all, Forrest

In my opinion, Marty and Ambergriscaye.com richly deserve nomination in either the Corporate Organization of the Year or Lifetime Achievement Award categories.

Lifetime Achievement Award
The Tourism Awards Selection Committee chooses a person who has been active in the tourism industry and who has shown tremendous dedication and commitment in the development of tourism in Belize.

Corporate Organization of the Year
An organization that offers a unique and spellbound Belizean product or service recognized locally and internationally. The organization must excel in product and marketing innovativeness, quality of product experience, value for money and operational performance.

I agree Lan

I have also found out that San Pedro Sun is being nominated by a few people in the Corporate organization of the year category for those that would like to vote for them.
