Chesterton resident
Dawn Ivanyo will appear as a contestant on the Wheel of Fortune on
Friday, Oct. 19.
The show will air
at 6:30 p.m. on WLS (ABC 7).
Ivanyo is married
with two children, enjoys going to concerts, and snorkeling. A
self-proclaimed puzzle enthusiast, Ivanyo has been watching America’s Game¨
ever since contestants shopped for their prizes. She finally decided to
audition to become a contestant, alongside her son in Chicago, in hopes of
winning enough money to take a vacation and give back to her local church.
Ivanyo is competing
as part of Wheel of Fortune’s “Great Outdoors” week and will be spinning the
Wheel and solving hangman-style puzzles to win once-in-a-lifetime vacations,
new cars, and cash prizes.
Wheel Watchers Club
members will want to pay specific attention to the Mystery Round. If the
$10,000 Mystery Wedge is won by a contestant, then the SPIN ID of a loyal
viewer at home will be revealed, giving them the chance to also win $10,000.
