You got out there, you knocked on doors, you debated your options and, thanks to all your votes, we have your 2021 WAVEs Top 3.
Now we want to know from you, our loyal readers, who was THE most inspiring? Who was THE most motivating? Who was THE best of the best in the LGBTQ community? It’s time for you to pick the 2021 WAVE winners.
The Watermark Awards for Variety and Excellence, or the WAVEs as we call them, recognize the best in Central Florida’s LGBTQ community in the areas of activism, service, entertainment and more.
There are about 50 categories to vote in. In each category, we ask our readers to choose, out of your Top 3 picks, who best represent the values of the LGBTQ community in your area. The final round of voting goes until 5:00 p.m. on Feb. 12.
IMPORTANT NOTE: One vote per category per user. Multiple votes from a single user will be deleted. Each user must vote in a minimum of 15 categories to have their votes counted. Each ballot must include a valid email address.
Make sure when filling in your answers to include enough information so we can identify who, what and/or where you are speaking about. For questions asking for a person or group of people, make sure to put first and last name(s) of who you are voting for. For questions asking for “local” businesses, if there is more than one in your area (i.e., if you list Planet Fitness as your favorite fitness center) be sure to indicate the location of your favorite either with an address, district name, area or neighborhood.
Good luck and let the final round begin!
