THE year 2020 has come with many challenges, but Kouga Express is happy to announce that we will continue with our annual Christmas Baby competition, and entries are open!
As with every year, we are looking for a baby to grace the front page of the last edition of the year – which will be published on Thursday, December 17.
The competition is for Kouga and Koukamma babies who are celebrating their first Christmas; therefore babies who are entered need to be born after December 25, 2019.
To enter, parents must send their baby’s photo via email only.
Qualifying entries will be uploaded in our Christmas Baby 2020 album on the Kouga Express Facebook page.
Please allow at least one to two working days for entries to be reviewed and uploaded online.
If your photo does not appear in the album, it means it did not qualify.
The competition is not a voting competition – the number of likes/reactions will not affect the outcome of the finalists.
A panel of independent judges will choose the winner of the competition.
The closing date for entries is at 16:00 on Monday, November 30.
