(Submitted by the Wood County Humane Society)
The Wood County Humane Society is set to launch its fourth annual
GoGoPhoto Contest today at noon. This donate-to-vote fundraiser invites pet owners to submit photographs of their pets for a fee of $10 and to campaign for votes to earn the top prize. Votes are $1 each and anyone can vote as
many times as they like. Entries will be accepted until 8 p.m. on Oct. 1, 2020. Voting ends at 8 p.m. on October 16.
The photograph that receives the most votes by the end of the contest will be featured on the cover of the WCHS 2021 calendar and the entrant will receive one free copy of the calendar. The photograph that receives the second highest number of votes will be featured on the entrant’s
choice of months and the entrant will receive one free copy of the calendar. The photographs that place third through 12th will be featured on one of the months of the 2021 calendar and entrants will each receive one free copy of the calendar.
Nine winners (who place 13th through 21st ) will have their photographs featured on the collage month of the calendar. Those who want to guarantee their pets a place in the 2021 calendar can reserve a calendar day
for $25. Only one pet photograph will be featured for each calendar day.

Local businesses also can support the organization while they grow their own audience base. For $50 a business can purchase ad space the size of a traditional business card. Advertising space is limited, so those who are interested are encouraged to contact Heath Diehl at wchsboardofdirectors@gmail.com soon.
The 2020 GoGoPhoto Calendar Contest (which took place in calendar year 2019) raised nearly $2,800 for the organization. This year the contest organizers have set a goal of $3,000.
