The Rotary Club of Pine Bluff will hold its Small Business Appreciation event at noon on Tuesday, May 16, at Pine Bluff Country Club, according to a news release.
The event annually recognizes one local outstanding small business, according to Alicia Nixon, program chairwoman.
Since the ceremony specifically honors small businesses, Nixon said a special invitation is extended to Chamber of Commerce members in that category — a business with up to 75 employees.
The 2017 winner of the George A. Makris Sr. Small Business Award will be announced. The event was established in 1993, and 24 recipients have been honored.
