The Chamber of Commerce thanks everyone who voted in our 2nd annual “Best of the Shores” contest and congratulates the 2014 winners and runners up! Nearly 400 ballots were cast, and over 2,000 individual votes made for area Chamber member businesses. Chamber members and area residents are invited to a special awards luncheon on Tuesday, October 28, at 12:15 p.m. at the Miami Shores Country Club.

In addition to honoring this year's community favorites, we will be joined by a special guest speaker, Babacar M'Bow. Mr. M'Bow is the new Director of MOCA North Miami.  He will bring his upbeat vision for the museum and speak about current and future exhibitions planned for MOCA in 2015.
