🎉 Exciting News: Avoyelles' Claire Pilgreen on Wheel of Fortune! 🎉

Claire Kojis Pilgreen, an Avoyelles resident and co-owner of Griffins Antiques and Main Street Market, will appear on Wheel of Fortune Monday, Dec. 8, at 6:30 p.m. on KALB News Channel 5.

Pilgreen traveled to Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California for the taping, which took place on Thursday, Oct. 23. She was selected to participate in the show’s “Secret Santa Holiday Giveaway” episode.

Pilgreen kept her appearance quiet until this past week, choosing to wait until closer to the air date before sharing the news publicly.

Her announcement on Nov. 25 was met with an outpouring of support from family, friends and customers throughout Avoyelles Parish, all wishing her the best as her episode approaches.

Her national television appearance will air just days after the local announcement, giving residents across Avoyelles an opportunity to tune in and cheer her on.
