We encourage you to e-mail the contest link and spread the word through social media to family and friends and encourage them to vote for your favorite contestant's photo. Votes may be cast during the Voting Period only. All donations for votes are non-refundable and not tax deductible (there was a vote in exchange for the donation). Entries and donations MUST be made via the online contest page. Contest payments made online are through a secure site.
PRIZES & WINNER
The top 12 pets with the highest votes will be featured in the 2023 Calendar. 1
st place recipient of the most votes will be featured on the cover AND the January page of the Calendar.
Any pets with 20 or more votes will have their picture and story or biography featured on the rescue's Facebook page on a date of the owner's choosing. In the event that date is not available, an alternate date may be selected.
The Calendar will be available for sale in late 2022. WRN/ NYSWR will attempt to notify the top finalists via email as soon as possible after the contest closes to notify/discuss available months. ONLY pets will be featured in the calendar. Various additional prizes may be awarded during the contest at the discretion of the contest organizer.
