MARIETTA – Readers of The Marietta Times have nominated and voted for their favorite organizations and businesses in the Mid-Ohio Valley, recognizing the best of the best in their respective fields.
Today, those winners are announced.
Starting in May, readers participated in the nomination round, where nearly 2,500 local participants were distinguished across the overall categories of Body and Soul, Entertainment and Travel, Food and Dining, Health and Beauty, Home and Garden, Kids and Education, Pets, Services, Shopping, and Vehicles.
Last month, they were tasked with narrowing down the list of nominees to five in many subcategories. Today, the top performer in each will be rewarded as the 2026 Readers' Choice, alongside two finalists.
"It is always exciting to find out who the winners and two finalists are in each category," said Advertising Director for the Times Lisa Northcraft. "We appreciate all our readers for voting each year."
The votes were tallied by an independent third party.
