CHICAGOANS OF ALL AGES ARE INVITED TO NOMINATE THEIR MOTHERS TO WIN A FREE YEARLONG MEMBERSHIP AT MASSAGE ENVY®  AND TICKETS TO WICKED THIS MOTHER’S DAY

Illinois –Chicagoans of all ages—from children to adults to seniors—are invited to nominate their mothers for an entire year of pampering compliments of Massage Envy, the nation’s premier massage therapy franchise. During the company’s Mother’s Day contest, anyone can enter their mother to win a yearlong Massage Envy membership (valued at over $700) and tickets to Chicago’s musical hit WICKED by writing a brief passage explaining why she is special. Starting Monday, April 28, entries may be submitted in the designated drop box at any Massage Envy clinic throughout the Chicagoland area through Saturday, May 10.  On Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 11, one winner will be selected at each location.

The contest entries should give the judges a sense of how special their mother is, whether through overcoming and coping with extraordinary circumstances, always having a positive attitude, being the best coach, teacher, or fan, creatively leading the family and multi-tasking, or any of the countless other characteristics that make moms amazing.  Contest entries should be a maximum of 250 words and can be either handwritten or typed and placed in a sealed envelope with a separate sheet of paper indicating the name of the nominating individual, contact phone number, and mom’s name.  They can be dropped into the designated box at each Massage Envy clinic through Saturday, May 10 at 6 p.m.

"This contest is a tribute to Chicagoland moms and the importance they have to their families’ lives," said Peter Carlson, Regional Developer/Partner of the Chicagoland Massage Envy clinics.  “Our clinics are designed to be accessible to the busy lifestyles that moms live each and every day, so we are thrilled to be able to offer this complimentary relaxing experience to reward one deserving mom at each of our 14 Chicagoland locations.”
