LAS VEGAS — The official deadline to nominate regional lighting companies for the 2015 Hometown Hero Lighting Company of the Year is rapidly approaching — only little more than one week away. YOUR nomination stands a very good chance of getting a worthy company on the regional Hometown Hero ballot, and if other PLSN readers agree, that regional lighting company will be one of the six finalists on the final Parnelli Awards Ballot this September. A second round of voting will then determine which company ascends the podium for the national Hometown Hero Lighting Company of the Year Award at the Oct. 24, 2015 Parnelli Awards ceremony.
