“Nexia Day is a great way for everyone to get involved and celebrate the strengths of our network, wherever they are” Kevin Arnold, CEO of Nexia International.

On Thursday, staff of Andrews & Co. participated in a “Hot Ones” Wing Challenge. Staff had the chance to try 9 different flavours of wings, ranging from honey garlic to the hottest of them all, da bomb!

During this challenge, Andrews & Co. staff raised a total of $525.00 for the Orleans-Cumberland Community Resource Centre Food Bank.

Thank you to everyone who participated. For more information on Nexia Day please visit their website: https://nexia.com/nexia-day/

This past weekend Tracey Stratton along with other members of staff completed the Walk to End ALS in Ottawa. The total raised this year was $4,160! (fundraising, bake sale).

Every year the office participates in the walk in memory of our former partner Andy Foreman.  Andy passed away in 2013 and since that time we have raised in excess of $20,000 for this worthwhile and close to home cause.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our efforts this year.

Andrews & Co. is hittin the field this upcoming summer! Staff have recently joined a Softball League through Ottawa Sport & Social Club. Everyone is looking forward to working and playing together as a team on Tuesday nights.

Please note our office hours have changed for the summer

Monday – Thursday 8:30am – 5:00pm

Friday 8:30am – 1:00pm

As many of you know our partner Andy Foreman passed away in March 2013 from ALS. ALS is a terminal disease that takes away people’s ability to walk, talk and eventually breath on their own.

Staff member Tracey Stratton has once again registered to take part in the annual “Walk to End ALS’  which this year takes place on June 8^.   Walking with Tracey will be other staff members, Andy’s wife and other members of his family. Through fundraising events including a bake sale and the walk a goal of $4,100 has been set to try and beat last years total raised of $4,075.

And that’s a wrap! Andrews & Co. celebrated another successful tax season last Friday, with a fully catered party for all our hard working staff. This year we had Meatings Barbecue put on an incredible spread and Stray Dog Brewing Company who supplied a fantastic specialty beer!

Andrews & Co. staff enjoyed the 2nd Breakfast Series with a creative “Cereal Bar”. The bar was filled with cereals, fruits, and pastries. Thank you to our wonderful Admin staff for putting together another wonderful spread!

Thank you Stray Dog for providing us with samples of some of your top hits! Staff got the chance to sample the following: Anytime Pale Ale , Night Owl Session Stout, Shaggin’ Wagon Pale Ale & This One California Common. It was a tight race between the Anytime Pale Ale and the Shaggin’ Wagon Pale Ale. After serious debate, we have decided to go with the Anytime Pale Ale for our Annual After Tax Party.

Last week, Andrews & Co. staff were treated to an amazing “Build Your Own Yogurt Parfait Bar”. The bar was filled with juices, fresh fruit, granola, mini chocolate chips and chia seeds. Thank you to our wonderful Admin staff for putting together a wonderful spread!

To better serve you our office hours have now changed for the month of April:

Mon, Wed, Fri 8:30am – 5:00pm

Tues, Thurs 8:30am – 7:00pm

Kicking off busy tax season right, with an in house Cookie Bar for staff!

This past Saturday, Andrews & Co. enjoyed an evening out at The Ottawa Curling Club. With some who have never curled before to some retired professionals, everyone had a blast! Thank you to The Ottawa Curling Club for having us. We look forward to coming again.

It was a poppin day over here at Andrews with our first ever Popcorn Day! Thank you Kernels for supplying us with many different flavorful kinds.

Timothy Malleau and Greg Mouland represented Andrews & Co. at Business After 5 in early February. The event took place down the street from us at Stray Dog Brewing Company where they discussed “freedom to do what feels right, the defiance of a life confinement, and taking risks to do something great”.

Thank you to the Ottawa Board of Trade for putting on a wonderful event and thank you to Stray Dog for hosting.
