Pismo Beach Vets Hall Hosts 'Under Our UmbrELLA: A Musical Benefit for Baby Ella Beckstead' 7/8

Jun. 11, 2011  

San Luis Obispo County's vibrant local theater community is coming together to mount "Under Our UmbrELLA: A Musical Benefit for Baby Ella Beckstead" at the Pismo Beach Vets Hall on Friday, July 8, 2011 at 7:00pm. The event will be an evening of entertainment featuring performances by local artists, theater & dance companies and will include a Silent Auction, Casino tables, Desserts and a No Host bar. Tickets are $30 per person and proceeds will benefit Baby Ella, who has been diagnosed with a rare heart defect and will require multiple surgeries after birth. Tickets may be purchased in advance at Cheap Thrill Records in SLO, at Beauty Secrets in Pismo Beach, or online at www.BrownPaperTickets.com (keyword: Under Our Umbrella). A portion of this event was sponsored by Med+Stop Urgent Care Centers of San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles.

BABY ELLA'S STORY
Ella's parents, who are active members of the theater community, recently were told that their precious unborn daughter has Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome, a rare congenital heart defect that will require her to have multiple surgeries beginning at birth and continuing throughout the first few years of her life. Join our community of artists, friends and family as we come together to support them Under our UmbrELLA. Donations can be made directly to the Ella Beckstead Benefit at any Rabobank location.
