Welcome to the 6th Annual Morris Animal Refuge Calendar Contest – where your pet could be the next calendar sensation! Get ready for a chance to showcase your furry friend’s star quality.

Hold onto your leashes, because the excitement just reached a whole new level this year. Imagine this: not only could your pet grace the cover of the calendar, but they could also become the face of a one-of-a-kind, specially crafted batch of beer courtesy of MLBW Brewing!

Yes, you read that right! The top three pets of the contest will step into the spotlight and be featured on the label of a specially crafted batch of beer courtesy of MLBW Brewing. The top three winners will receive two complimentary cases of this beer. 

It’s simple to join the excitement: just submit your pet’s picture and a $15 entry fee to kickstart their campaign when the website goes live on September 1st. But that’s just the beginning!

The real fun begins as you take the stage as a campaigner. Spread the word far and wide – to your friends, family, and even your coworkers. Every vote counts, with $1 equating to a valuable vote for your pet’s photo. Utilize the power of social media to make your pet’s presence felt.

The top 12 photos, as voted by our community, will earn a spot in our 2024 calendar and receive a complimentary copy.
