Readers' Choice 2012: Vote for the Best in Mill Valley and Marin

Now comes the fun part.

For the past several weeks, we've asked you to nominate the best businesses in 25 categories for inclusion in the summer 2012 edition of our Readers' Choice competition. From Monday, July 23 through Friday, August 17, the stakes are high. 

As we were designing this round of Readers' Choice, we realized that Patch's hyper-local focus didn't entirely satisfy the desire for our towns' respective businesses to garner Marin-wide bragging rights. So we split the difference: we've set aside a number of categories that include just businesses within our respective towns, and we've also dedicated the majority of categories so that entries from across the seven Marin towns we focus on to have a chance to sport the Best of Marin Patch banner with pride.

So let's get down to it. Help Patch determine the best of the best by voting for your favorites in each one of the categories below. (Click on the links under each category and vote in the poll attached to each article.

Cast your vote by August 17 and help us decide who's best. Whichever business gets the most votes will be named the Readers' Choice winner.
