Join Booboo & Fivel for a FREE concert at The District at Tustin Legacy tomorrow at 11 a.m. on The District Stage. Booboo Stewart, who plays Seth Clearwater in the Twilight film series, and his sister, have teamed up with Childhelp Inc. in the fight to end child abuse.
While rocking out to their tunes, make sure to bring a new toy that will be given to a child at the Childhelp Children's Advocacy Center. Childhelp is an incredible national organization that helps victims of child abuse and neglect through prevention, intervention and treatment. Often times these children never receive a brand new toy of their own. Toys that are small enough for the children to carry on their own and even journals for the older girls are appreciated.
As part of the special day, join in the VIP experience and meet Booboo and Fivel at Bowlmor Lanes. After the signing and meet and greet, stay to knock down some pins and Bowlmor Lanes will be giving all proceeds from all games played between noon and 5 p.m. to Childhelp.
To purchase tickets to the Booboo and Fivel VIP Experience, visit www.childhelp.org/BoobooandFivel. Tickets cost $40 each.
The FREE concert will take place on The District Stage in The District Promenade.
The District is located at 2437 Park Avenue in Tustin. 714.259.1046.
