2012 Adoption STAR Photo Contest Winners

We want to thank everyone who submitted photos to the 2012 Adoption STAR Photo Contest. There were many great pictures, and the judges had a difficult time selecting just two winners for each category. We also want to thank the four judges who volunteered their time and expertise for the contest.

Adoption STAR contacted the first and second place winners last week and below you will find the great winning pictures. Stay tuned later in the week, when we will post all of the submitted photos in a slideshow on the blog.

The four first-place winners will be receiving fun gift certificates and a Tommy Pickles (from Rugrats) cookie jar.

The four second-place-winning-families will be receiving a digital photo frame.

Congratulations again to all of the winners, and thank you to everyone who participated in the 2012 photo contest! Every one at the agency really enjoyed seeing all of the fantastic photos.
