This marks the second year that the Rockstar Energy Drink UPROAR Festival has joined forces with Child Find of America.  "We're incredibly honored that the Rockstar Energy Drink UPROAR Festival is continuing their partnership with Child Find of America in 2011," said Mark Delluomo, Director of Operations, Child Find of America, Inc. "Last year's tour promoted safety and awareness as well as raising over $40,000 which went directly to program costs. All of us at Child Find are very grateful to the producers, bands and fans who so generously contributed. We're also excited that UPROAR has given us another opportunity to let thousands of rock fans know more about us through their website, programs and press releases. Traffic to Child Find's website and Facebook cause page spiked over the course of the tour and continues to be vigorous. Many people still don't realize Child Find not only investigates and resolves cases, but also has programs that work to promote safety and prevent abductions. For example, we're really proud of the Parent Help and Parent Help for Military Families programs which are designed to help dads and moms parenting apart to problem-solve their challenges – including such issues as visitation, custody and child support. This kind of publicity can change all that."

The current Rockstar Energy Drink UPROAR Festival tour dates are as follows. Additional dates will be announced in the coming weeks.
