Voting is now open for the 2009 Mayor's Tulsey Awards. Tulsa
entrepreneurs were nominated in ten separate Tulsey categories:
Civic, Emerging, Entertainment, Franchise, Green, Interactive,
Legend, Restaurateur, Serial and Young. The entrepreneur with the

Award.
The Mayor's Tulsey Awards are publicly driven entrepreneur
awards that recognize the pioneers and innovators of the Tulsa
community. The winner of each category will receive a hand-cased
Golden Driller Statuette, symbolizing the entrepreneurial
excellence in Tulsa.
The winning entrepreneurs will be announced at the Mayor's
