Who wants to be a millionaire? Belle Air Terrace customers! On Dec. 11, the Belle Air Terrace held its own version of the hit-game show as part of the 4th Annual Belle Air Terrace Customer Appreciation Day. Students and faculty gathered to watch “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” guest hosts, NBC 10 News Anchor, Steve Levy, and Villanova’s men’s basketball coach, Jay Wright, quiz contestants on nutrition and Villanova basketball knowledge. The winner won the grand prize of a portable DVD player. Host Levy enjoyed being host for the game show and participating in the Customer Appreciation Day.

“I think it is a wonderful idea just to say, thank you,” Levy said. “It is something that should be done more often in our society.”

Those who didn’t participate in the game show still had a chance to win. Belle Air Terrace raffled off other fun prizes, including a 20-inch TV/DVD and a popcorn maker. In an effort to appreciate their customers there were also a complimentary “Bread and Spread” table and desert table, free fountain drinks, and reduced meal prices. New Philippine-inspired entrees, chicken adoro and pancit, were sampled by customers.

Michelle Moss, general manager of the Connelly Center Dining Services, who helped plan the Customer Appreciation Day said, “Today, like everyday, we are trying to provide our customers with good food, entertainment, and a fun atmosphere.”

Connelly Center looked festive with red and green balloons, holiday tablecloths and Christmas garland. Students were amused by the balloon artist who twisted colorful balloons into fun shapes. Everyone appeared to enjoy the day.

Belle Air Terrace customer, Mary Rogers ‘04 said “What a great day! I eat at Belle Air Terrace all the time and I think it is fantastic that they take the opportunity to appreciate customers like me.”
