The stars were out on both sides of the dais for the Eighth annual Victor Business Awards, hosted on April 3 by the Victor Local Development Corporation.

Since 2005 the awards have recognized dedicated business owners and individuals who have made significant contributions to the community.

Master of ceremonies and Victor resident Kevin Doran kept the red carpet luncheon on track, and 2011 Business Person of the Year, Skip Lehman, highlighted his hometown’s unique assets with warm affection. Spearheading the event was Victor Local Development Corporation Executive Director Kathy Rayburn.

“We are extremely fortunate to have so many talented and dedicated business men and women in this community who have chosen Victor as the site for their business,” said Rayburn.

The star-studded dais was lined with officials from state, county and local government agencies.
