SUMMIT COUNTY — Eleven builders were recognized with awards during the 16th annual 2010 Summit County Parade of Homes, which is presented by the Summit County Builders Association and continues this weekend in Silverthorne, Frisco, Breckenridge and Blue River.
Four builders took the spotlight with at least six awards apiece. They include: Fazendin Brothers Colorado, which swept Category IV with eight 1st-place awards, including Best Overall, for Home #6 at 620 Two Cabins Drive in Silverthorne; Dana Covert Contracting & Darrick Wade from Bostad International, which took home eight awards (seven 1st place, including Best Overall, and one 2nd place) for Home #4 at 31 Red Buffalo Trail in Silverthorne; Thebeau Construction/Entrada, who won 7 awards (six 1st place, including Best Overall, and one 2nd place) for Home #11 at 508 Mountain View in Blue River; and Double Diamond Property & Construction Services, which took six awards (one 1st place and five 2nd-place awards) for Home #22 at 172 Sunshine Ridge Lane in Breckenridge.
In the multi-family category, Vail Resorts Development Company swept its division with six 1st-place awards, including Best Overall, for its offering at One Ski Hill Place, A RockResort.
