How does it work?
Entry of Babies:
- Simply download your favorite photo of your baby and pay the $5.00 donation (optional) for registration. 

Voting:

- Once voting starts, view the entries and vote for your favorite baby. 

- Voting online is by credit card only. 

- Donation voting on written ballots can be done by mail or in the Gazette lobby.  Non-donation can only be done in person in the Gazette lobby on an original ballot.  No newspaper ballots will be accepted for non-donation voting.

- Before you can vote the first time, you must click on registration and complete the registration information to get ready to vote.  After the initial registration, you will not need to register each time you vote; just enter your user name and password. Remember, after you vote, you must click on “apply” for your votes to be posted to your baby. 

Prizes:

- A Grand Prize will be awarded to the top winner.  Prizes will also be awarded to the next two runners-up.

- Top 12 winners’ names will appear in the monthly Gazette Birthday Calendar.

- We will have a one-page calendar for sale after the contest.

- Top 12 winners will appear in a special Gazette pull-out section, along with all babies receiving 100 votes or more.
