Henderson, NV (KTNV) -- If you heard a lot of jingling in Henderson Saturday, there was a lot of bell ringing going on at the Galleria Mall.

The Henderson Chamber of Commerce and the City of Henderson took part in a Ringing Bell Off.

The goal was to encourage citywide giving to the Salvation Army.

Chamber volunteers were stationed at the main entrance of the mall until 6 p.m. Saturday evening. Meanwhile, city council members were ringing bells at a different entrance of the mall.

There was a competition to see who could raise more money in their red kettles.

The Salvation Army is hoping to raise $700,000 during its Red Kettle Campaign this season around the Valley.
