Both the Beaver Island Music Festival and Baroque on Beaver have made the finalists lists for MyNorth’s Red Hot Best of 2021 lists for Charlevoix & Chain of Lakes area Events. But they are far from the only nominees with island connections. WVBI’s Cynthia Johnson, who goes by Cynthia Jaye on the air, is nominated to the list of favorite radio personalities for all of northwest Michigan for her work hosting WVBI’s Top Ten + Five countdown show. Also nominated are Robert’s John Services for Heating & Cooling Services, Beaver Island Retreat for Hotel, Inn or Resort, Little Sand Bay Nature Preserve Trail for Trails, both Donegal Bay and Little Iron Ore Bay for beaches, and Whiskey Point Brewing Company for Breweries. You can help bring awards home to the island by clicking on the links above to vote for your favorites. Voting starts on March 1. Win or not it is exciting to see so many Beaver Island nominees on the list. MyNorth publishes Traverse Magazine and operates a popular website covering northwest Michigan.
