Lonestar And Friends Team Up To Help Strike Out Childhood Cancer

NASHVILLE, TN. (Lonestar Official Website) - Multi-platinum selling Lonestar are working to help kick off the CMA Music Festival with 'Lonestar & Friends Strike Out For The Kids,' a bowling party to raise money and awareness for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Celebrities including Blue County (Aaron Benward & Scott Reeves), Tracy Lawrence, Billy Dean, Aaron Lines, Mark Wills, Ira Dean & Keith Burns of Trick Pony, Amy Dalley, Bryan White, Bobby Pinson, Amber Dotson, Jimmy Olander of Diamond Rio, Michael Peterson, Hometown News and The Wilkinsons and are scheduled to attend the event at the Hermitage Lanes in Nashville, Tenn., on Monday, June 6 from 6-10pm CT.

Celebrities will host bowling lanes for the party, and four lucky fans' names will be drawn to bowl a game with each artist. Each attending celebrity will receive a custom-made bowling shirt, which will be autographed by the celebrity and then auctioned off to the highest bidder.

All net proceeds will benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. St. Jude is internationally recognized for its pioneering work in finding cures and saving children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. Founded by late entertainer Danny Thomas and based in Memphis, Tennessee, St. Jude freely shares its discoveries with scientific and medical communities around the world. No family ever pays for treatments not covered by insurance, and families without insurance are never asked to pay. St. Jude is financially supported by ALSAC, its fund-raising organization.
