ANNABELLE'S WISH COMES TO WEST PARK MALL MONDAY

An Evening with Annabelle returns to West Park Mall Monday with activities beginning at 6 p.m.

The program benefits the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southeast Missouri.

Working with the mall are Fox 23/KBSI and Chick-Fil-A. Each child attending will be given free Annabelle antlers and a chance to win prizes.

Anyone purchasing a child's meal at Chick-Fil-A will receive an Annabelle cassette and poster, courtesy of Fox 23/KBSI.

A portion of each sale will be donated by Chick-Fil-a to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Annabelle, the Christmas cow, is scheduled to make a guest appearance and lead children in a sing-a-long. Kool K and Lisa, hosts of KBSI's Kids Club, and Doodles from Chick-Fil-A will also be on hand.

On Tuesday, the Annabelle's Good Friends Finale will take place, beginning at 9 a.m. Annabelle antlers will be given to all children attending.

Joni Adams, managing editor of the Southeast Missourian, will be Annabelle's storybook reader. Immediately following the story "Annabelle's Wish," Annabelle will make a personal appearance.

Other Annabelle attractions during the holiday includes registration at the wishing well at center court to win one of three giant plush Annabelle characters.

Paper wish ornaments may be purchased from participating stores to decorate Annabelle's tree at center court. One day's purchase of $100 or more on a Discover card qualifies shoppers for a free "Annabelle's Wish" video, available at the customer service center.

A drawing will be held Dec. 23 and one winner will be forwarded for a grand prize drawing of four round-trip tickets on American Airlines to any U.S. city.
