We are thrilled to share the results with you today!  Every year we receive thousands of votes which always shows how excited Triad parents are to honor and reward their favorite local businesses and services.

This year the race was extremely close. We have a tie in one category, and there were several categories where the winners emerged literally by one vote!

The winners are listed by Triad city below. If you or your business is listed as a winner, please watch for an email from Triad Moms on Main this week to receive your winner’s logo and certificate.

Additionally, at the very bottom of this post is a link to ALL the finalists from 2017 – and every finalist deserves recognition for making it to the final round of this year’s competition!
