Hernando Marroquin and his wife, Fran Marroquin, owners of six area McDonald's restaurants throughout Lancaster, Rosamond and Mojave, are the main sponsors for the event.

Hernando Marroquin approached AVC athletic officials about a year ago and pitched the bowl idea in efforts to get Lancaster and Palmdale youngsters thinking about college as early as possible, he said.

``My wife and I believe that the education of our children is extremely important,'' Marroquin said.

``We feel that by doing this we are exposing the kids to college and at a very young age. . . . By the time they get to high school, the determination will be `What college will they be going to?' not whether or not they will be going to college. So by getting kids involved in the sports side, we feel they will start developing that interest that's required to attend college.''

Fran Marroquin is the president of the Lancaster Education Foundation and the chairwoman of the culinary arts program at Littlerock High School Littlerock High School is a public, co-educational high school located in Littlerock, California.

The Marroquins will be operating concessions at the bowl game, Beard-Williams said.

``Hernando has set it up so that a lot of the food, such as the hamburger meat and that type of thing, is donated,'' she said. ``So it will really increase the profits that the schools are going to make.''

Major supporters of the bowl include AVC, A.V. Rubbish, Antelope Valley Chevron stations, Coca-Cola, Jones Intercable, and all 14 area McDonalds, Hernando Marroquin said.

Music-related entertainment will be provided by area middle schools.
