Ben Williams Named Entrepreneur of the Year
Our fearless leader, Black Cap Grille owner Ben Williams, has always been kind of a big deal around here, but now it's official! Last month Ben received the Entrepreneur of the Year Award from the
Mount Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce
.
As noted in the
Conway Daily Sun
, Ben was "nominated by Dot Seybold, general manager of
Settlers Green
. Wiliams was recognized for the different restaurant concepts he’s developed that have reshaped dining in the region."
“Ben Williams has been making dining magic for over 40 years. Ben is creative, driven and one of the most likable guys in the valley,” said Seybold said in her nomination.
In receiving the award, Williams thanked his staff and partner Michael Mastronardi, as well as Seybold and OVP management for their encouragement and support in bringing him "to the south end of town" during the 2008 recession after having made his mark as "a village guy."
"I can't thank them enough," said Williams.
Please join us in congratulating Ben for this much-deserved honor!
