What is the Chapters’ Choice Contest? 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? 
Click here and vote once per day on Facebook through April 18 to help us crown your next Chapters' Choice winner! Simply review the list of accomplishments and click “Vote” beneath your favorite. Keep in mind, once you click the “Vote” button you will be unable to change your selection for that day.
When will the winner be announced?
The Chapters’ Choice winner will be announced during the Chapter Exchange Reception and Awards on Monday, May 12 at the 43rd Payroll Congress. The winner will also be shared on social media and the Chapter Leaders Blog.
