About Us

Welcome the Sanpete County Hometown Guru, a companion site to the Best of the Sanpete readers' choice awards contest.

Each year in the Best of Sanpete, we ask the public to nominate and then vote for their favorite businesses, businesspeople, events, and attractions in and around Frederick, Maryland.

On Sanpete County Hometown Guru, you’ll find the first, second, and third place winners from the contest, so when you’re looking for the best burger, the right dentist for you, a good plumber, and more, you’ve got solid recommendations from folks in the know. Pretty much all of Sanpete County's favorites are right here!

How do I know where a business is placed in Best of the Sanpete?

When viewing a business, note the gold and grey tags above its name that show where it finished in Best of the Sanpete — first, second, or third place — and in which year. If a business that won in prior years has since closed, a red “closed” tag will be above it. We’ve retained those businesses to honor their victories.

See something wrong with a business's information?

We do our best to stay on top of changes as businesses move and expand, but as most humans do, we sometimes miss things. If you want to suggest a correction or an edit to a business's information? Simply click on the business name, then click "Suggest An Edit" at the top right above its name. You can then fill out and submit a form with your feedback.

Use of AI-Assisted Summaries

We may use AI tools to assist in generating informational summaries using publicly available business information. All AI-assisted content is reviewed by our staff and is used for informational purposes only. We use AI as a support tool to enhance efficiency while maintaining editorial standards — not as a replacement for human judgment. Our goal is to present clear, fair, and consistent information while honoring the integrity of the businesses recognized by our community. If a business believes its summary requires correction or updating, we welcome outreach and are happy to review requested changes.
