What is the Summit Lost Pet Rescue calendar contest and who runs it?

The Summit Lost Pet Rescue Homeward Bound Calendar Contest is a public photo vote for pets, run by Summit Lost Pet Rescue, Inc. in Summit County, Colorado. The rescue describes the contest as a fundraiser for its work, and the entries become candidates for a calendar that carries the Homeward Bound name.

The contest sits on GoGo Photo Contest, which hosts the entries, the entries view and the rules page. The rescue's own site presents the Homeward Bound name at the top of the contest page, so a visitor sees the rescue and the calendar together.

A visitor who wants the rescue's background should open the contest page itself, since the details behind this page describe the contest and its dates rather than the rescue's wider work in the county.

The entry and voting periods are separate windows, so submissions close before the public vote runs. The 2024 dates are not stated in the details, so only the year is confirmed for that edition.

Mountain Time is the zone used for every window in the details, so a supporter in another zone should convert the closing hour before relying on it.

How does a supporter vote for a pet photo on the platform?

A supporter opens the Summit Lost Pet Rescue entry on GoGo Photo Contest, browses the submitted pet photos, and votes for the photo to be featured. The vote is a public selection made during the voting period, and the result follows the votes each entry receives.

StepWhat the supporter doesMenu item used
1Open the contest pageParticipate
2Browse the pet photosView Entries
3Vote for one photoVoting period dates
4Check the rules before the closeRules

The menu of the contest page lists Participate, View Entries, Rules and Prizes, and the details do not describe any other route into the vote. A supporter who wants the full contest terms should open the Rules item rather than relying on the entries view alone.

How does this contest compare with other Colorado pet ballots?

The other Colorado programs in the listing are pet and photo contests tied to local groups and calendars. The rescue sponsor and the Summit County focus are particular to this contest.

A reader who wants a larger pet calendar can compare the Dumb Friends League Calendar Photo Contest with this rescue calendar, then return here for the Summit County vote, which is a fundraiser for one organization.

How can supporters back a favorite pet photo in the calendar?

Supporters can back a favorite photo by voting for it during the voting period and by telling friends who follow the rescue about the contest. The public count decides which photos rise, so a clear single vote on the right entry is the honest way to take part.

The rescue and the platform set the rules for the contest, and the details do not quote every rule for entries and promotion. A supporter who plans to ask others to vote should read the Rules item first, since the organizer decides what the count includes.

How to vote in Summit Lost Pet Rescue Homeward Bound Calendar Contest

  1. 1

  3. 3

    Cast your vote

    Vote for the photo you want to support during the voting period. The details say that voting is public, but they do not describe a second vote for the same photo, so one selection is the reading used here.
