COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- White Castle is pulling out all the stops for National Hamburger Month with a Slider-bration™ that honors Cravers and their dedication to the Original Slider®.

For the entire month of May, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, a different White Castle restaurant will be hosting a two-hour long Slider-bration™. During that time, a Castle somewhere across the country will be offering the Original Slider® for just 25 cents. Each guest can order up to 10 Sliders during a two-hour time frame.

"This is an exciting event for our legion of Cravers," said Jamie Richardson, vice president of White Castle and an ambassador of Craver Nation. "We are thrilled that Slider-bration™ offers our loyal customers a chance to share a memorable moment with family and friends."

Most White Castle restaurants will host at least one two-hour Slider-bration™. Cravers are encouraged to travel to multiple Slider-brations™ and share their excitement with fellow hamburger aficionados throughout the month.

Slider-bration™ starts at 12:01 a.m. on May 1 with a kickoff event in Columbus at the 4525 Kenny Rd. location. Another Slider-bration will kick off every two hours in May at different White Castle locations throughout the Midwest and Northeast.

Sliderbration.com was created especially for National Hamburger Month so Cravers can find when and where the next celebration begins. The website offers a countdown clock for all Slider-bration™ events happening within the next 24-hours.
