This summer the Nestle Drumstick brand is celebrating young people who have accomplished amazing things – both large and small. Beginning May 14, 2010, adults can nominate outstanding kids as part of the Nestle Drumstick brand Heroes Contest.

Fifty winning kids will be awarded the ultimate summer celebration, complete with enough Nestle Drumstick sundae cones and a fun-filled party package to host an unforgettable event for up to 50 family and friends.

«This is the second year that the Nestle Drumstick brand team is recognizing and rewarding young people who are making a positive difference in their communities,» said John Harrison, Official Ice Cream Taster for the Nestle Drumstick brand. «Entries will be judged on the child or teenager’s accomplishments, as well as the originality and creativity used to achieve their goals.»
