DISCUSSION
The Absolute Best of Long Beach 2022 aims to recognize businesses, organizations, and individuals that make our City the great place it is. As the COVID-19 pandemic persists, events such as this shine light on the amazing work being done throughout the City and also creates opportunities for residents to make new, lasting connections with neighbors.
