Award season is upon us again, with votes now being collected for the Best of the West Shore awards, celebrating exceptional local businesses, non-profits and community organizations.

Among the categories this year are Healthy as a Horse, for the best veterinary care provider; Bring Home the Bacon, for the best independent grocery store, and IB次元官网网址檓 Sexy and I Know It, for the best aesthetics provider.

West Shore residents are encouraged to vote for one, several or all of the categories.

The awards have continually evolved, but this year is particularly unique in that the West Shore Chamber of Commerce has taken over the nominations. The new format, which lists nominees in 12 categories, is designed to make sure more businesses are represented, said Chamber president Doug Kobayashi.

The other big change this year is the introduction of a Best of the Community section. The public can write in their favourite places to hike, fish, have a summer swim and more on the ballots.
