Balloons, snacks and activity books will be available for children at these stores. In addition, all visitors to participating stores may enter a sweepstakes to win both local and grand prizes. No purchase is required. Six grand prize winners will receive a DVD player and four tickets to a New York Yankees home game. Six runners up will win two tickets to a Yankees home game.

The 31 stores participating in Fiesta Week also offer a complete Spanish-language shopping experience. Marked with signs that read "Hablamos Espanol" and located in areas with large Hispanic populations, the stores feature bilingual wireless phone and service plan displays, brochures and pricing information to make shopping easier and more convenient for Spanish-speaking customers. In addition, specially trained bilingual sales representatives wearing name tags with "Hablo Espanol" are available in these stores to assist customers with wireless purchases and questions.

The Spanish-language services at Verizon Wireless Communications Stores are part of the company's commitment to offer customers the best wireless experience available, from shopping to customer care, billing and service on the nation's largest, most reliable wireless network. Other new offerings for Spanish-speaking customers include a Spanish-language bill, bilingual staffing in customer service centers, telesales offices and authorized agent locations, and a variety of products and services developed to meet the needs of the more than 3.5 million Hispanics in the New York Metro area. IN Network calling to Puerto Rico, which offers unlimited wireless calls to and from Puerto Rico on an America's ChoiceSM calling plan; blah!, a multi-language mobile chat service; and 411 Connect, a directory assistance service with a Spanish option, are a few of those services.
