The judging panel, at its sole discretion, will pick the Grand Prize-winning entry Spokesdog and Spokescat, from the finalists who have an equal amount of votes, to appear on the 2024 ACS Second Chance Cider labels. The finalists are the three entrants with the most votes of all dogs and all cats.

We will notify the finalists at the conclusion of the voting period on or before, July 22, 2024.
