WHERE THE WINNERS ARE HONORED
THE SOCO AWARDS
A night for the businesses, the people, and the thought leaders who never got called out loud in front of a room.
The winners come from a full year of public voting. Every Best of South County category, October 1 through September 30, ends up here: named out loud, in front of the community that voted for them.
Date and venue are coming. Want to help make the night happen? Get involved.
