Photos of the “contestants” will appear on the RPCA website https://riverviewparkca.com/ and Members of the public will then vote for their choices using a link on the RPCA website.  While voting is free, voters may also make a donation to the Ottawa Humane Society.  Photos of the contest winners will be shared on the RPCA website and will also be shared in the June edition of the Riverview Park Review.
