From the moment we started touring our first clinic space in Barrhaven, we've been the best of friends with our neighbours at Elevate Spin. We've shared in several amazing celebrations and we've supported one another through several serious business and personal challenges. Our dogs were best buddies (RIP Willow), our kids love spending time together and hundreds of shared clients can testify that we share a similar heart for uplifting our community. It would make us so happy if you would help us out but voting for Elevate Spin for the Best Spin Class in the 2024 Faces Ottawa Awards.

NOMINEE: SPORTS - ATHLETE OF THE YEAR
VANESSA GILLES - Canada Soccer
- "Which one is your good foot" , our testing team
- "Oh they are both bad, I have two bad feet", Vanessa (Smiling)
It's this type witty and playful spirit that we have come to know, love and cherish about Vanessa. We would love to see her recognized as Ottawa's top athlete because she embodies many of the qualities that make our community so great. She's among the most humble athletes we've met. She works as hard as anyone we've ever seen and she handles her wins with incredible grace.
Most recently, over the holidays, Vanessa was working out in the gym after hours. It just so happened that one of our staff was also there with his 12 year old daughter. Though painfully shy, she is a competitive soccer player herself and adores Vanessa. When we told Vanessa that Reese was too shy to come meet her, Vanessa took it upon herself to come upstairs, fined her way to our staff lounge to find Reese. In a gentle and really special way, Vanessa seemed to know how to manage Reese... she simply walked over and gave her a big hug. That was a very special moment with a very special athlete.
Olympic Champion, World Cup Contender, Top Tier Pro ... An amazing ambassador for our city. Please vote for Vanessa Gilles as Ottawa's Top Athlete for 2024
NOMINEE: FOOD & DINING - DONUTS
HOLEY CONFECTIONS
Want to hear a funny joke? Sometimes people ask us "Don't you love the freedom of running your own business?". Our friends Ty and Sam at Holey Confections can appreciate how laughable that statement can be to us family business owners. Sam and Ty are inspirations to our group because we've watched them and cheered them on from the moment we both ventured out into the small business world. What they have accomplished in scaling their businesses and winning Dragon's Den is an incredible Ottawa story. They've managed to do that while raising an amazing family and continuing to be great friends and members of the community.
​
Also worth noting... hands down the best donuts in Ottawa. Please help bring justice to their craft by voting today!
NOMINEE: SPORTS - COACH OF THE YEAR
SAM OJIE - Ottawa Fusion
Sam coaches for the Ottawa Fusion volleyball club. Over the course of the past decade, we have seen him pour his heart and soul into hundreds of athletes. Having spent his playing career in the NCAA and accomplishing many great accolades of his own, he would never be found promoting himself or his brand... only expressing interest and care in the athletes he working with. A true blessing to our community.
NOMINEE: FOOD & DINING
BROWN'S SOCIAL HOUSE
BROWN'S CRAFT HOUSE
Because we are a family owned business and each of our partners works tirelessly and equally to run a business and to raise a young family, we have become especially proud to call Ollie a friend. Ollie owns and operates each of the 2 Brown's Social Houses and the Brown's Craft House locations.
Everyone knows what its like to visit a restaurant and to enjoy some nice food and drinks. Very few know what it's like to operate one. From staffing to cleaning and managing a kitchen, its incredible what Ollie does on a daily basis.
The quality of the restaurants alone is enough to get our vote. But, it's not the food that has us asking for your help in voting for the Brown's franchise in Ottawa, it's the kind of Man and father that Ollie is. We've seen him go to unbelievable lengths to be an amazing dad to his daughter. He's done that under intense pressure and stress at work and that inspires us everyday.
​
If you have time, we'd love your help in voting Ollie and his teams for best restaurants in the Faces Ottawa Awards.
