Best of Aledo 2026

• Nominate any business, organization or place that serves the Aledo ISD footprint: Aledo, Willow Park, Hudson Oaks, the Annettas and the unincorporated areas around them.
• One nomination form per person. Fill in as many or as few categories as you like; a category needs at least ten nominations to make the ballot.
• The five most-nominated names in each category go on the ballot. One ballot per person, by email address, which is never published.
• Sponsors may sponsor a category and appear beside it; they cannot nominate, vote more than once, or see results before readers do. The tally is published with the vote counts.
• Winners are announced on the results date and printed in the morning edition; the Ledger sends each winner a certificate and a badge for its window.

Who is eligible: every active sales-tax permit holder in the footprint is on the businesses directory, and every restaurant on the restaurants page; organizations and programs without a permit are eligible too. Category sponsorships: sponsors@aledoledger.com; the media kit has the terms. Questions go to editor@aledoledger.com.
