The 2016 Tonacci-DeBlasi Awards for
Excellence in Tourism and Hospitality

The Tonacci-DeBlasi Awards are presented to individuals in the South Jersey region who provide unparalleled customer service to residents and visitors through their hospitality, warmth, and extensive knowledge of our attractions, wine and culinary experiences, historical and cultural assets, points of interest, and artistic diversions.

These recipients are the ambassadors for Southern New Jersey. They are the smiles, laughs and memories that people will take with them when they leave, and the ones they will remember when they return. They are the personal connections to our ever-growing region and the story-tellers of all there is to see and do, even right around the corner. More importantly, they are the concierge for our unique attractions and the authentic stories behind them. These recipients are as deep and diverse as the region itself, and we are privileged to have them at work here representing all that South Jersey has to offer. This award honors their spirit, and the enthusiasm with which they honor all of us.
