CONTEST: Best Locket Inscriptions Win Tickets to See ANNIE on Broadway

“ANNIE’s LOCKET OF LOVE” Sweepstakes asks Patch communities in New York: If you could give a locket to someone you care about deeply, what would the inscription say?

 

The iconic story of ANNIE is about hope, optimism and love, and there is no better symbol of that than the locket Annie wears around her neck, a token of love from her biological parents to help her get through tough times.

As ANNIE returns to Broadway’s Palace Theater, organizers would like to give Patch community members in New York a chance to express that same kind hope by creating their own locket inscriptions, with the best entries scoring a chance to win two tickets to see the show.

To enter tell us in 110 characters or less in the comment section below: If you had a locket, who would you give it to and what would it say?

We’ll keep the comment section open through the week, and multiple entries are allowed. Then on Feb. 11 we’ll select the Top 10 submissions and ask users to vote in a Patch poll for the one they think is the best. The writer of the most popular inscription will win tickets to have a "date night" at ANNIE on Broadway.

Tickets can be redeemed at any Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday evening performance of ANNIE from Feb. 14 to March 14.

Good luck. More details about the contest are attached.

A locket for my daughter with the inscription "To the Moon & Back" because that's how much I love her!
Tara February 2, 2013 at 04:39 am
For my Daughter who means everything to me:
"You will always have a piece of my heart"
Pointer Farm February 2, 2013 at 12:19 pm
I would inscribe a locket for each of my 3 daughters. The locket would read "you are never fully dressed without a SMILE"

For My Husband and Forever Friend,
"How do I Love You; I Love You to the depths and height my soul can reach". Our Blessings are Many With All My Heart I Love You.

"No matter what happens throughout your life, when you look inside you're heart, know I'm always there."
I would give it to my son and daughter to share throughout their life as a tradition. When they had a special moment, or a moment when they needed a little extra support, they could give to one another to remind them I share the good times and help them through the difficult ones. It would become a tradition and an heirloom and further generations would also know I love and support my family... Forever!

Dear "patched in" .... just checked ... and that photo you described is not there. Thanks for alerting us.
Kermy4 February 2, 2013 at 04:25 pm
I would give the locket to my wife. One of our favorite movies is The Muppet Movie. Our love is very similar to that of Kermit and Miss Piggy. The locket would read "Never before and Never Again" which is a line from a song in the movie.
Kermy4 February 2, 2013 at 04:35 pm
The inscription would read "OTTID" which is DITTO backward. Does anyone remember the movie Ghost? I would give it to my wife.
Jeanne February 2, 2013 at 06:58 pm
Very unfair to give someone less than 24 hours to respond. It was an unfortunate situation, but giving 12 hours' notice is just not enough time. Next time I hope you will consider this.
Kathy February 3, 2013 at 03:44 pm
I would give the locket to my honey (my fiance), we meet each other later in life (mid-late 40's) and 8 years later I couldn't be happier or more blessed. The inscription would be:
"ILY ~ WAMH ~ FNAFE ~ TBHYTB" Which means I Love You With All My Heart For Now And Forever The Best Has Yet To Be! We have signed all our cards & notes this way since the beginning!

I'd give a locket to my twin granddaughter's,and they both will read....
Don’t compare your life to others, you have no idea what their journey is about.
Cristina Cerone February 4, 2013 at 09:25 pm
I would give a locket to each of my 2 daughter's and they would both read:
"I will Love you Today, Tomorrow, Forevermore"

It is what it is ... but I don't have to like it.

"Excellent choice" We love and miss you Larry Calvi. When King Pizza closed it was the beginning of the end for Hastings on Hudson.

"You are the sunshine of my life" I would give the locket to my niece. She makes me laugh every time I see her.
Shannon Roddy February 8, 2013 at 05:54 pm
To my son..."I love you. Always remember that and never forget it."
Spennicchia Family February 8, 2013 at 08:36 pm
For my baby grandson who lives far away: "I will love you wherever you are" And "I Love You Just for YOU"!
Tyler Durden February 8, 2013 at 08:46 pm
"If found please return to..." I would give it to my daughter, she loses everything. ;-)
Beach Girl February 9, 2013 at 12:19 am
It would be to my son " I love you more, then all the sand on the Beaches !"
hunter for life February 9, 2013 at 12:23 am
I would give it to my wife "Forever is not Long enough "

Ginger, Moe and Frankie. I am privilaged to honor you and Gabby with this funraiser. I would alsoRead More like to thank my family who drive 370 miles to help me and show their love for you. So many volunteers that help. Thank you Tina, Ray and Melissa for holding down the tshirt and bookbag table. Thank you to mom and dad for holding down the refreshment table and to Julie, Carley and Jason for working the raffle table. Also to Gabby for the wonderful tattoos and for Missy for teaching our children about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. I would also like to thank Al for bringing the firetruck and all the enjoyment it brought the little ones. Now to all that came and donated, I thank you. Without you all there would be no "WALK". Love you all, Peace and Love, Laurie.
Laurie MacAllister June 18, 2013 at 09:23 pm
One more person, my husband Rusty, you are my glue that holds me together. Thank you for putting upRead More with me through all my craziness. Love you.
Laurie MacAllister June 18, 2013 at 09:28 pm
Sorry Pete from Memorable Moments. You know how much you are appreciated for the wonderful picturesRead More that you took the day of the "walk" words cannot describe how I appreciate you donating your time. Thank you.
PC Lover June 15, 2013 at 09:04 am
Cathy, Westmed should refer to you as "Valued Customer". No person can serve two masters.Read More Every Doctor must ask themself, "Am I serving my patients or am I serving the insurance companies? Because those two are in direct financial conflict with each other. Seven minute maximum "face time" sort of answers that question, doesn't it? Today, medicine is a business...once you accept that fact you will begin to have the proper mind set to better navigate the system as a customer, not as a patient. There are exceptions.
PC Lover June 15, 2013 at 09:06 am
Craig, I may be wrong but I doubt the average doctor at Westmed is making that much money. Do youRead More have a reference for that estimate or just wishful thinking?
PC Lover June 15, 2013 at 09:13 am
Cathy..I agree wholeheartedly. Charging for parking is the epitome of arrogance. As the insuranceRead More companies squeeze Westmed they are trying to pass their overhead onto us, when what they should be doing is dropping the underpaying plans and letting the world know which insurance companies they can no longer accept due to the insurance company's corporate greed. Maybe then the reimbursement will improve. I hope they choke on it.
Craig Noor June 14, 2013 at 05:31 pm
The new picture is decent ... only about 15 percent Byram.
Silvio V. Buccieri June 14, 2013 at 06:29 pm
IF you like roof tops, then this is picture you should keep posted.
FJT June 17, 2013 at 08:43 am
The photo I was referring to was the one that showed the Byram River not the one that's up thereRead More now. The village's own website has some nice photos of Port Chester. Maybe the Patch could ask to borrow one of those, or take their own photo using the same vantage point.
Craig Noor June 13, 2013 at 05:33 pm
ps oh yeah, it's stand by, not standby
Craig Noor June 14, 2013 at 07:40 am
Not surprisingly, the Greenwich patch photo is of a dumpster and the rye patch photo is ofRead More people's,owing crack. Or not pathetic!
Aidan June 14, 2013 at 11:32 am
Keep at it, Katie. It's a small potatoes thing. You'll get it straight, I'm sure. Thanks for theRead More energy.
Sandra Casey June 11, 2013 at 12:37 pm
This photo is still not appropriate. Sorry, but it is more of Byram than of Port Chester. PleaseRead More choose a photo in Port Chester.
Craig Noor June 11, 2013 at 05:36 pm
Yep the left half is Byram ... As I mentioned, if you stood in Byram you could take a picture thatRead More was all Port Chester ...
Bea Conetta June 12, 2013 at 10:07 am
This picture is truly ridiculous, because it is not Port Chester. It is a photo of Byram and aRead More parking lot. As for Patch's new format, I dislike it intensely. Go back to the old format that was more interesting and not so dull. It was good to see the comments of residents and be able to give your own opinion. It wasn't broken, so why change it? I am still waiting to get some help on how to get to my past comments. Can anyone help me with that problem that arose with the new format?
niecey June 10, 2013 at 08:02 am
I agree. It is awful. Go back to old design. I hardly go to the website anymore

This reminds me what " COCA-COLA" DID DECADES AGO! . THEY CAME OUT WITH A DIFFERENT"Read More COKE" NEW! IMPROVED! ETC.ETC. FORMULA. PEOPLE HATED IT THE FIRST DAY IT WENT TO THE SHELVES! LATER ON THEY WENT BACK TO THE ORIGINAL !!! ..... IF IT AINT BROKEN!....
Aidan June 14, 2013 at 11:53 am
Yeah. It's lousy. Admit it and fix it.
Liz Giegerich (Editor) June 6, 2013 at 03:30 pm
Hi Silvio, Thanks for offering. We have a photo to be used. Just waiting for it to be changed by ourRead More tech team. Thank you.
Liz Giegerich (Editor) June 6, 2013 at 03:18 pm
HI everyone, I do not have the ability to change it myself right now. Patch is aware of the repeatedRead More requests for it to be changed. A new photograph will be put in place as soon as possible. Again, sorry for the delay and for the initial mistake that led to this photo being used. The photo that is supposed to be there is the one used on our facebook page right now.

I sent my comment on the new pic to that email too and suggest others do too so it can be replacedRead More with a good picture

we as a community need to rally and support the efforts to right all the long past due wrongs thisRead More is a terrible situation and I for one will not rest until it is fixed and I will not take responsibility for wrongs made before my Grand Birth
FJT June 17, 2013 at 09:09 am
Sadly, comments that were posted here by Craig Noor and FJT have been removed -- along with anotherRead More commenter's invitation to share more about the issue at hand. Perhaps our comments were too negative in the eyes of certain people with more power than the average Port Chester property owner.
epp June 19, 2013 at 12:57 am
My neighborhood is riddled with irresponsible renters thanks to the money hungry dirt bag landlords.Read More More burden on the schools and village services and we pay for it every year. My property value went down another $17,000 this past year while taxes keep rising. Eighteen years here and the last seven years have not been very promising.
Liz Giegerich (Editor) June 5, 2013 at 10:36 am
I am so sorry about this. We will have it changed as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.
Anne Latella June 8, 2013 at 11:26 am
I believe the Port Chester High School is the most beautiful High School in Westchester and all ofRead More the surrounding states. Its architecture is incomparable. It should be representative of the village and its residents. Also you might consider the Veterans Monument on Westchester Ave or Lyons Park with the flowers in bloom. All historical and representative of the beauty of the village. Any one of these sites would make a beautiflul
Anne Latella June 8, 2013 at 11:28 am
Patch Picture & represent the village in a magnificent manner.
Craig Noor June 4, 2013 at 07:16 pm
And while I'm on the subject of ugly this redesign is still hideous. Nice inscrutable icon next toRead More my post - it adds nothing, but meanwhile you have removed the preview of people's comments that used to come up when you clicked on their name. And this light gray type is awful. And it doesn't make the ads more visible if that is what you were thinking
Craig Noor June 4, 2013 at 07:17 pm
Wow, hit a paragraph return and it posts your comment prematurely. Are two-paragraph comments tooRead More much sophistication for your audience, advertisers, or editors?
Anna June 4, 2013 at 09:05 pm
I personally like this image of Main Street...although I would agree it is a sloppy photograph andRead More is not framed well. Why pretend that Port Chester is something that it isn't? It's not Rye. And I don't know why you'd rather have an image of generic sailboats as a backdrop.
