Honoring Iconic Sacramento
Businesses
The Sacramento History Alliance would like to thank our Sponsors and guests who joined us for the 2024 Burnett Awards as we paid tribute to iconic businesses who stand as pillars of Sacramento’s history, embodying resilience, tradition, and community spirit.
A special thanks also to our emcee, ABC 10 News Anchor, Lora Painter.

THE SACRAMENTO HISTORY ALLIANCE
Each year the Sacramento History Alliance honors Sacramento businesses that have met the test of time and become iconic treasures in our community.
