The Queen Anne Chamber of Commerce awarded Merrill Gardens at Queen Anne the 2009 Large Business Award for the neighborhood this week.

“We are pleased to be a part of the vibrant Queen Anne business community and honored to accept this award on behalf of the seniors that live at Merrill Gardens,” said Evan Perrollaz, General Manager at Merrill Gardens at Queen Anne (pictured above), in a press release published yesterday.

Merrill Gardens first joined the chamber in 2006, and has since been a very active member, hosting four events from the chamber in 2009, including the annual Chamber BBQ and Christmas party, the Fundraiser for Fallen Officers Dinner, and fundraisers benefiting both the Queen Anne Helpline and Northwest Harvest.
