This excited group of shoppers grabbed the interest of Ida Hendrix, Mall Manager for Briarwood Mall. It turns out that the owners of Westarbor Animal Hospital surprise their staff each year, and this year it included a shopping spree by limo to Briarwood Mall.

"We all work really hard at Westarbor.  And we are treated very well.  It is a great animal hospital for clients, patients, and employees," Gale Marcoux explains. Perhaps Westarbor will consider Simon Giftcards from Briarwood next year, and create an annual tradition.
