A small group of Washington County elected and economic officials, known as “Prize Patrol” honored small businesses for their part in the area’s business and economic development during its Fifth Annual Economic Development Week (Sept. 28 – Oct. 2).

The prize patrol visited each municipality in the county and several organizations received a visit along with a sweet treat and promotion through the county department of business development’s social media channels.
