Four “One Tree Hill” stars will join a slew of other sports, TV, film celebrities, and their fans this weekend at a Nicholas Sparks event that will raise money for various nonprofits.

Former “One Tree Hill” cast members James Lafferty, Bethany Joy Lenz, Stephen Colletti, and Robert Buckley are expected to attend Sparks’ inaugural Celebrity Family Weekend April 20-22 in New Bern, N.C., according to a family weekend news release.

Among other events, the calendar includes a Nicholas Sparks Film Festival, with screenings at New Bern’s Civic Theatre of several Sparks-based favorites — including one at 8 p.m. on Friday of his latest feature, “The Lucky One.”

(Some of Sparks’ collaborators recently confirmed that “Safe Haven,” a film based on another Sparks’ novel, will be filmed in Southport beginning in May.)

In New Bern, the family weekend also features a celebrity golf tournament, lunch and brunch with Sparks, a 5K fun run and a “Family Fun Night” with a magician, rides, arts and crafts and more.

“What we really wanted to do was provide something for everyone,” Sparks said from his New Bern home earlier this month. “It’s a great way for people to get involved and give in an efficient way that’s a lot of fun.”

Lafferty, Lenz, Colletti, and Buckley are expected to attend the movie premiere and/or the golf tournament on Saturday, according to the release.
