The annual Chapters’ Choice contest is a public online voting contest that enables local chapters to determine which Chapter of the Year hopeful had the most impressive accomplishment from the past year. Each COTY entrant’s accomplishment (edited for length and to remove any identifying information) has been listed anonymously for users to vote on and determine which accomplishment was the most impressive.  **How do I vote?** ![iStock-1072970462](https://blogs.payroll.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Chapters/iStock-1072970462.jpg?width=188&height=188&name=iStock-1072970462.jpg) [Click here](https://woobox.com/aa8j6v) and vote once per day on Facebook through **April 18** to help us crown your next Chapters' Choice winner!
