Hot Young Performers Team with Chooka Boots for Charity-

Kent, WA May 29, 2004--Chooka sheepskin boots, a brand of the Seattle based Washington Shoe Company, sponsored the KHTS 93.3 concert, "Your Show 5" at the Coors Amphitheater near San Diego on Friday, May 14th. Many hot young artists were among the performers, including Hilary Duff, Jessica Simpson, Maroon 5, Black Eyed Peas, Nick Cannon, Fountains of Wayne, Evan & Jaron, Kimberley Locke, Ryan Duarte, Busted, and Brandy. Coors Amphitheater was filled to near capacity, with close to 16,000 fans in attendance.

Before the concert, artists demonstrated their support by signing several pairs of Chooka Boots to be auctioned off for charity. Jessica Simpson, Hilary Duff, Evan & Jaron, Nick Cannon, Maroon 5, and Kimberley Locke were among the artists who signed boots. The signed Chookas will be raffled off to listeners, with the proceeds going directly to the development of the new "MS Hub"- a state-of-the-art center for the treatment and research of Multiple Sclerosis, located in Seattle, WA. The unusually high number of MS cases in the Pacific Northwest will make the MS Hub one of the largest Multiple Sclerosis research facilities in North America.

A non-profit organization, the MS Hub offers a great opportunity for Chooka to give back to its community and contribute to the development of scientific breakthroughs and new treatments that will dramatically improve the lives of those living with MS. Philanthropic contributions are crucial in helping to build what will be the preeminent center for the treatment, research, and cure for MS. Chooka Boots is proud to be a part of the ongoing development of the MS Hub.
