Headliners Committee

The Mission of our Members

The Headliner Awards program was created by the Dutchess County Chamber of
Commerce to recognize and celebrate outstanding companies and nonprofit
organizations located in the county. Each year winners are selected as
exemplary in the following categories: Leadership in Organization &
Community, Outside-the-Box Innovator, Green-Friendly Organization, Continued
Growth in Current Economy, and Customer Service. Nominations can be made by
members of the community including employees, customers, friends, neighbors
or the organization's leaders. Winners, chosen from these nominees by a
committee of Chamber members, are saluted at the April Contact Breakfast.
