Monday, July 3, 2006 – The All-Star Miracle Home is living up to its billing by adding more sports celebrities to the action with commitments from Houston Rockets Chuck Hayes, Luther Head and Tracy McGrady to design rooms within the home.

The All-Star Miracle Home is a community fund-raiser where a 4,100-square-feet fully furnished and landscaped Meritage home valued at $500,000 will be raffled off to one lucky winner.

The program aims to raise $2 million for Texas Children’s Hospital, the only Children’s Miracle Network hospital in the greater Houston area, and the Houston Rockets’ Clutch City Foundation. Hospital employees may purchase entries for only $100 each. Only 20,000 entries will be sold.

Many exciting events will take place this summer at the All-Star Miracle Home, located in Sienna Plantation at 10506 Shipman’s Landing in Missouri City.

Starting at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday, July 11, all the accessories and furniture will be moved into the home. “Great Day Houston” will broadcast the move live on KHOU Channel 11.

Plan to bring the whole family to the home for clowns, face painting, balloons and food on Saturday, Aug. 5, for the official grand opening of the home. The Sunny 99.1 FM van will be there from 10 a.m. to noon, but the event will continue all day.

Once the home is completed, RE/MAX of Texas will host tours of the home, which will be open every day from noon to 7 p.m. and on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Check out the current All-Star Miracle Home ads running in our community and stay tuned for future TV commercials and radio spots.

To purchase raffle tickets or to obtain more information about the All Star Miracle Home, visit www.allstarmiraclehome.com/houston or call 866-616-2244.
