A paw-sitively exciting opportunity to make a difference
The City of Minden is embracing its furry residents with open arms as it announces the highly anticipated Pet Mayor Election of 2024. In a celebration of community, companionship, and compassion, Minden invites all pet owners to nominate their beloved companions for a chance to become the esteemed Pet Mayor for the upcoming term.
Starting on Saturday, April 20, 2024, pet owners may nominate their cherished pets as candidates for the Pet Mayor Election. Whether they bark, meow, chirp, or slither, all pets are welcome to throw their leashes, tails, fins, or feathers into the ring! The nomination fee will be $25.
Voting for the Pet Mayor will commence on Thursday, May 9, 2024, providing ample time for the community to rally behind its favorite candidates. Each vote will cost $5 and there is no limit on the number of votes one may cast.
The pet who receives the most votes will be crowned the Pet Mayor of the City of Minden for the 2024-2025 term, but the excitement doesn’t end there! Second place will assume the role of Chief of Paw-lice, while third place will take on the responsibility of Fur Chief. Pets placing fourth through eighth will compose the Pet Council.
Not only does Minden’s Pet Mayor Election promise fun and frolic for all involved, but it also serves a noble cause. Proceeds from the registration fees and voting will go towards the construction of Minden’s new Animal Control Facility, ensuring the safety and well-being of our furry friends for years to come.
“Join us for Minden’s Pet Mayor Election, an exciting fundraiser for the City of Minden’s Animal Control Facility! Nominate your pet and vote with donations. The pet with the most donations wins the title of Minden’s Pet Mayor. Support our animal friends and our community,” said Nick Cox, Minden’s Human Mayor.
The City of Minden invites all to join in this tail-wagging extravaganza.
