It’s come to our attention that several of our Readers Choice Winners were contacted by a company offering commemorative plaques for a significant cost. We understand that it seemed as if it was coming from our office, which is absolutely untrue. We want to be very clear about this: we in no way sanctioned or sponsored this, nor did we receive any request for our list of winners or the use of our logo and graphic design which was used on at least one plaque that we know of.

We DID send a certificate and ribbon, along with an accompanying letter of congratulations, to each winner. We did not charge for these nor did we make any money off of this project with the exception of advertising.

We are investigating this matter. If you are one of our winners that was contacted, will you please contact us at 870-589-5055 or email us at monroecountyherald@gmail.com. Or call Emily Johnson at 501-940-6577.
