Thank you to all those who participated in June’s “Closed Caption Competition.” What clever and hilarious entries that were submitted! Also, thank you to the 40 members who voted on their favorite entry. The winner of June’s contest is Nathan G. from Canada. His caption can be viewed in this edition in the “Editor’s Corner Section.” He will receive a free copy of the August issue of ESSAY. And congratulations to an anonymous member, who won second and third place, and Vince G., who won fourth place. Anonymous and Vince G.’s captions are displayed above.

Are you ready for another caption challenge? We invite you to craft the perfect recovery caption for the cartoon below, centered on October’s theme, “Surrendering Shame.” If your caption makes us laugh, it will be featured in the October ESSAY edition. Don’t miss out—the submission deadline is September 15. Send your entry to essay@sa.org. Unleash your creativity, and may the cleverest caption win!
