Nominations underway for Mother of the Year

Whose mother is the best? You and your fellow readers will decide in the 2014 InMaricopa.com Mother of the Year contest presented by K’Bella Salon and Day Spa and UltraStar Multi-tainment Center.

Readers can nominate their favorite mother at www.InMaricopa.com/Contest until May 9. Voting will be held May 10-13.

Bragging rights and $2,500 in prizes are on the line, including a beauty pampering package with hair makeover, permanent makeup and an hour-long massage courtesy of K’Bella Salon and Day Spa.

“Being a mother is the toughest – and most rewarding – job there is,” said K’Bella owner Karen Benedek. “We’re thrilled to help recognize and reward some of Maricopa’s best moms.”

A K’Bella skin treatment and VIP movie or bowling experience for six from UltraStar will also be awarded.

“Mothers deserve the very best, to relax and enjoy their families on their special day,” said Adam Saks, general manager of UltraStar Multi-tainment Center, which is also offering a Mother’s Day brunch buffet for Maricopa families.

Julianne Hoopes, a mother of three, took the honors as Mother of the Year in 2013. Click here to read about her and the other finalists.
