Yellowknife’s Explorer Hotel recently hosted the annual YK Chamber Business Awards Gala.
The event is put together by the YK Chamber of Commerce, and is used to acknowledge and celebrate the achievements of the many different businesses across the NWT.
Members of the NWT business community, along with their friends and family, enjoyed not just the accolades of the awards, but also a full buffet dinner, musical entertainment, and various raffles and 50/50 draws.
