Becky Fejeran, 10, of Lucas.
The essay topic “My Mother
should be Mother of the Year
because ...” generated several
entries and stiff competition.
Essays were judged in three
categories, ages 7 and 8, ages 9
and 10, and ages 11 and 12.
Winners were announced May
9, with each receiving $100
worth of gift certificates from
Ron Womack, mall manager.
The gift certificates were
donated by stores in the Belz
Factory Outlet mall, located at
the intersection of Highways »
121 and 75. The mall features
every-day bargains on
everything from clothing and
shoes to cosmetics and jewelry
— at prices that are 30 to 70
percent below normal retail.
It’s assured that Mom’s
special day was a little more
precious for April Cooper,
Carole Fejeran and Pat Weber,
thanks to their daughters’ ap-
preciative essays entered in the
contest sponsored by the Belz
Factory Outlet Mall.
