Quinceanera Celebration, Special Moment in Lives of Hispanic Girls, Made Sweeter With Sweepstakes From Kern's(R)

PLEASANTON, Calif., June 20 /PRNewswire/ -- In the life of a Hispanic girl, turning 15 means more than candles on a cake -- it marks the beginning of womanhood, and is the most meaningful event in a young girl's life, second only to marriage.

The celebration, known as a Quinceanera, is similar in concept to a debutante's "coming-out party" with a Mass followed by a festive reception. To mark that special occasion, Kern's(R) Beverages, LLC, has unveiled its Dulce Quinceanera Sweepstakes.

Fifty first-prize winners will be randomly selected to receive $1,000, certificates for a year's supply of Kern's Beverages, and a CD collection from Sony BMG Music Entertainment, including new music from Chelo, Ulises and Quintero. One grand-prize winner will be randomly selected from the first- prize winners to receive an additional $15,000.

To be eligible, a Quinceanera must be a legal resident of the 50 states or District of Columbia and turn 15 years of age in calendar year 2006 or 2007.

Anyone 13 years or older may register a Quinceanera online or by sending a 3x5 card with your name, street address (including zip code), daytime and evening telephone numbers (including area code), email address (optional), and the name of the "Quinceanera" to P.O. Box 7489, Burbank, CA 91510, now thru Oct. 31. Limit one entry per household. For complete rules and to download coupons for delicious Kern's Beverages, visit http://www.kerns.com/.

Kern's Beverages will be also teaming with Telemundo TV for its "La Quinceanera" reality show starting later this summer.
