2022 Annual DRIVE to be the Best Awards Night

The Kennebunk-Kennebunkport-Arundel Chamber invites you to join us for a night to remember! The Chamber's annual DRIVE to be the Best awards night will be held from 5:30 - 7:30 P.M. on Thursday, September 15 at Vinegar Hill. 

This year's theme will be When Life Gives You Lemons....

Here, we’re making lemonade (and maybe spiking it, too!) and we know you are, too. After all, isn’t that what everyone’s done for the past two-plus years here? Let's celebrate that can-do spirit that’s carried us through – the lemonade, the silver linings, the new connections. All of the good that came from all of the bad.

So join us in enjoying our first time together at this event since 2019, in honoring those businesses and individuals who have gone above and beyond, and those businesses residents and visitors alike have deemed “the best.”

Life may have given us lemons, but together we’ve made something beautiful from them. Let’s celebrate that.

Winners of the Chamber's traditional nine awards will presented followed by the announcements of the 35 Drive to the Best category winners.
