The Bryan Rotary 10 is an annual awards ceremony hosted by the Bryan Rotary Club for the past 27 years. The goal of the event is to promote business by honoring local businesses that have seen growth over the past few years. Out of the qualifying applications received, each of the top 10 businesses as determined by growth in gross revenues are given an award. The qualifications for businesses to be eligible to win the award are listed below, but if you’re not sure your business or a business you’d like to nominate will qualify, nominate them and let the Bryan Rotary Club figure out the rest. The biggest requirements to be aware of are that the business must be headquartered in Brazos County and cannot be a franchise. Again, when in doubt, nominate. If you don’t know all of the required information for nominating a business, fill in as much as you know and they'll take it from there.The link to the nomination form can be found here.
Additionally, the Anco Lifetime Achievement award is also given out during the BR10 awards ceremony. This award is for businesses that have been a staple in our community for more than 20 years. Past winners include Allen Honda and Smith Dairy Queens among a long list of other outstanding local businesses. They’re excited to see who will join the ranks of the Anco Lifetime Achievement award this year and hope you will join them for the event on June 17 at the Hilton.
