A pro show with a difference

Flex,  July, 2008  by Julian Schmidt

Bodybuilding will be sublimated by the Houston Pro Show on July 4-5. "All profits from the show will be donated to the Texas Children's Hospital to fight childhood obesity," says promoter Lee Thompson. "We want to prove that bodybuilding is a healthy lifestyle and that lots can be learned from it. Maybe this show can prove to these kids that they can be a Dexter Jackson or an Adela Garcia," or any number of idols that will be present at the weekend's numerous events: IFBB men's pro bodybuilding, IFBB men's pro bodybuilding 202-pounds and under, IFBB pro figure, IFBB pro fitness, and the John Sherman NPC Bodybuilding and Women's Fitness and Figure contest.

The Stafford Convention Centre is the venue, and the host hotel is the Sugar Land Marriott Town Square. For ticket prices and availability, check the Web at houstonproshow.com, or phone (281) 576-9061, or purchase tickets at One 2 One Training Center, 1051 Eldridge Drive, Sugar Land, Texas 77478.
