(PR) This year's fourth annual "Lonestar & Friends Strike Out for the Kids" bowling bash will be held on Monday, June 2 at 6:00 p.m. at the Hermitage Lanes in Hermitage, TN just outside of Nashville.For the past three years, the charity event has been a major success. The bowling extravaganza, scheduled just in time for the CMA Music Festival, has been sold out every year since being established and has raised more than $70,000 for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. With the Lonestar guys gearing up for their fourth run in the lanes, they haven't lost any passion about participating in the event.
Other artists currently scheduled to join Lonestar at the bash include, Trent Tomlinson, Jo Dee Messina, Little Big Town, Lady Antebellum, American Idol's Bo Bice and Diana DeGarmo, Joe Nichols, Jake Owen, Jamie O'Neal, Darryl Worley, Chuck Wicks, Bryan White, Chris Young, Ty Herndon, Heidi Newfield and Crystal Shawanda.
"Every year it feels like it's something totally new," says Lonestar's keyboardist Dean Sams. "There are always new fans and artists that come out and play that gives each year a fresh feel
not to mention the cause
it's something we want to keep doing for years to come."
Tickets are $30.00 and may be purchased by check or money order. The ticket reservation form will be available online April 8 at www.countrycares.org. Tickets include admission to the event, dinner at the Hermitage Lanes and inclusion in the random drawing for a chance to play on one of the celebrity bowling teams. For each artist in attendance, four lucky fans will be drawn at random to play in the games with their favorite country music stars.
The "Lonestar & Friends Strike Out for the Kids" bowling bash is scheduled for 6-10 p.m. (CST) with doors opening at 5:30 p.m. (CST).
