The Grande Prairie Downtown Association handed out some hardware Monday, presenting two local businesses with annual awards.
The 2020 Downtowner of the Year Award was presented to Better than Fred’s owner John Kriska. The award is presented to businesses who have been recommended by fellow business owners who feel they are deserving of the award.
The association says in a social media post that the establishment has been the hub for live entertainment in the downtown core.
“Although 2020 has been such a difficult year, John and his staff have worked incredibly hard in keeping Fred’s a staple here in Grande Prairie while giving back to his community through volunteering and donation.”
