Titel des neuen Albums “Other Side Of Down”?

Archuleta was the Season 7 runner-up for American Idol, and proved to be one of the best young phenoms to ever grace the Idol stage. Inspired by Les Miserables at the age of six, David began singing and used his angelic voice to win the Junior Vocal Competition on Star Search in 2003. On April 7, 2010, he returned to the Idol stage for a special performance of Imagine by John Lennon. He is currently working on his sophomore album “Other Side of Down” in stores September 14.

Past performers at the New Albany Classic include Jordin Sparks and Mitchel Musso (2009); Demi Lovato and Jordan Pruitt (2008); The Jonas Brothers (2007); Truth Squad (2006) and Hi-5 (2005).

Now in its 13th year, The Classic is a family focused event founded and hosted by Abigail Wexner as the primary fundraiser for the Columbus Coalition Against Family Violence. The all-day event is held at the Wexner residence in New Albany and features traditional carnival rides, games and activities as well as the Tween Brands Concert. The day culminates with an internationally sanctioned invitational show jumping Grand Prix featuring thirty of the top professional riders from North America and Europe.

Starting today, tickets for The Classic are available at www.ticketmaster.com and through all Ticketmaster outlets. Tickets are $15 each for adults 13 and older, with children 12 and under admitted free of charge with an accompanying adult. Additionally, tickets will be available at Easton Town Center’s Guest Services desk; Equus Now!, 8956 Cotter Street, Lewis Center; and New Albany Realty, 220 Market Street, New Albany beginning Monday, August 2.

“Now more than ever, families are seeking ways to have fun without spending a lot of money,” said Abigail Wexner. “The Classic is a day for families to be entertained and, at the same time, do something meaningful for other families in our community by supporting the Columbus Coalition Against Family Violence.”

One hundred percent of the funds raised through The Classic benefit the Coalition and to date, the event has generated more than $15 million to support domestic violence initiatives in central Ohio. The Classic is a great value for families, while also serving as a significant generator of funds for a critical community initiative.

All guests (including children) must have tickets to enter the event and free tickets for children can be obtained when purchasing adult tickets. The cost of the ticket includes the Tween Brands Concert at The Classic, entertainment and craft activities, as well as the Grand Prix. An all-day carnival ride bracelet for children and adults can be purchased for the nominal cost of $5 per bracelet. Tickets must be purchased in advance and no tickets are sold at the gate. On-site parking is free.

“The systemic-level change the Coalition continues to initiate is made possible due to the generosity of the New Albany Classic donors,” said Coalition President Karen S. Days. “Now, systems, along with individuals respond more appropriately to victims of family violence. And this year, we are pleased to be able to partner with the business community through our new online training tool.”

Founded in 1998 by Mrs. Abigail Wexner, the Columbus Coalition Against Family Violence (www.ccafv.org) is composed of leaders from businesses and community organizations in central Ohio committed to reforming our systems and improving the community’s response to family violence. The Coalition is organized around five task forces or victim “touch points,” entities where a victim is most likely to seek help – the Business Community, Faith Community, Health Care, Legal System and Victim Services.
