The Oil Region Alliance (ORA) announced the winners of the first ever Tourism Awards at their Annual Meeting in September. Categories included: Best Dish, Best Drink, Best Guest Room, Best Shop, Best Industry Advocate, Best Industry/Partner Organization, Best Must Do Activity or Attraction, and Best Must See Landmark.

Villa Italia Ristorante in Oil City was awarded the top spot in two categories – Best Dish and Best Drink. Best Dish went to their Italian sub, and Best Drink to their famous peanut butter milkshakes.

Chamber staff decided the best way to celebrate the Villa’s award was to have the winning items for lunch (pictured)!
