Wally Kennedy: New store boasts 500 wine labels

Halloween Express has opened in the former Cosmic Mini Golf storefront near the main entrance to Northpark Mall.

The store will be open through Nov. 1. It will specialize in all things related to Halloween, which has become one of the biggest holidays of the year in terms of retail sales.

I am told by someone in the know that the retail numbers for Halloween in recent years have become “huuuuge!”

Good causes

Registration for the Alzheimer’s Association Memory Walk will take place at 8:30 a.m. Saturday in the food court at Northpark Mall. The walk is the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and money for Alzheimer’s care, support and research.

The walk is being held inside the mall. That’s being done because the walk has been rained out for the past three years. Smart move. Details: (417) 623-4788.

Also happening this weekend at the mall is the “Miracle Market,” a fund-raising event for the Children’s Miracle Network. It will be held Friday and Saturday in the J.C. Penney court.

What you will find is a unique collection of specialty gifts and handcrafted items, such as pottery, custom jewelry and scrapbooking items. More than 30 local vendors will be featured. Details: (417) 347-6639.

If you have news about something happening on Range Line Road, dial (417) 623-3480, ext. 7250; or send an e-mail to wkennedy@joplinglobe.com; or send a fax to Wally Kennedy at (417) 623-8598.
