1994, we called the Osmonds,” said Kathy Lennon, one of The Lennon Sisters, America’s Sweethearts of Song. “They told us Branson is exactly what America needs, where families really matter. With the different generations of Lennons performing here, it truly is a family matter!”
For many families in Branson, show business is the family business. The Baldknobbers and Presleys feature three generations of family members who perform together nightly. The Haygoods, The Gatlin Brothers, The Lennon Sisters, SIX, The Hughes Brothers, The Duttons, The Bretts, Doug Gabriel, Jim Stafford, Shoji Tabuchi and other shows feature family members performing daily and nightly on stage together.
These talented families will inspire and wow every member of your family with their dazzling musical, comedic and vocal talents. These, and the many other shows in Branson starring family members, are fine examples that while these incredibly talented performers are certainly endowed with musical gifts, they have also mastered the art of presenting full-scale production shows complete with elaborate sets, high-tech laser light systems, costumes, props, audio-video elements and pyrotechnics. Creating fun is what Branson’s show business families are all about—for their families, and yours!
STUDENTS LOVE SHOWS Branson is the fastest-growing live student performance destination in the country because student groups can perform onstage at many of the shows, and attend customized educational workshops led by entertainment professionals. These educational trips include backstage tours, technical presentations from lighting and sound professionals, seminars such as Jim Stafford’s “The Business of Show Biz,” and a myriad of other academic disciplines that help teachers
meet their state accreditation standards. Student groups enjoy recognition at shows and seeing their school’s name on the theater’s marquee.
NIGHTLIFE The Branson area offers an eclectic mix of nightlife with live entertainment at
dance clubs, lounges, piano bars and restaurants. Many of the area’s professional musicians and singers moonlight after the shows. You’ll enjoy country, pop and blues bands, piano bars, solo artists playing acoustic guitar, line dancing and even karaoke. Most places don’t start happening until after the shows let out. After hours starts around 9 or 10 p.m. and goes ’til much later. You’ll never know which star you may see out and about after the show!

MISSOURI WINESThere were German immigrants that founded the wine industry in
Missouri in the early 1800’s, which resulted in its wine grape-growing corridor being referred to as the Missouri Rhineland. A little later, Italian immigrants moved into the area and began producing wine. In the mid-1880s, more wine was produced by volume in Missouri than in any other state. Before the Volstead Act enacted Prohibition, Missouri was the second-largest wine-producing state in the country.

oldest and most awarded winery as one of the town’s most popular attractions.

Branson’s artistic side also includes paintings, sculptures and other art forms. Visitors can see many of these displays throughout the area.
Yakov Smirnoff, the famous Russian comedian, displays his own personal oil paintings in his theater lobby, many expressing images of freedom. His “America’s Heart” painting was displayed as a mural in New York City at Ground Zero after 9/11 and portions of that mural are on display throughout the theater.
The Andy Williams Gallery of Entertainment is a self-directed tour celebrating Andy’s 75 years in show biz and his passion for collecting art. The lobby of his Moon River Theatre features sculptures by Henry Moore, Willem de Kooning and Jacques Lipschitz along with an impres-sive collection of Navajo blankets.

Andy’s Moon River Grill across the street also features many paintings from his collection.
Just east of the entrance to The Shoppes at Branson Meadows off Gretna Road, a small pavilion shelters a bronze eagle resting atop a
four-sided monument. A tribute to all veterans, the exhibit was dedi-cated in 1995 by Bob Hope and The Children of the Ozarks. The center-piece at Ozark Mountain Bank, in historic downtown Branson, is “Flight,” an impressive sculpture portraying four geese in take-off by artist Gary Price. Reflections at The Grand Village is the late painter Thomas Kinkade’s exclusive signature store where visitors can go to admire and purchase his work.

Edwards Art Gallery and Boger Art Gallery, both located at College of the Ozarks, house dozens of impressive paintings. Edwards Art Gallery, part of the Ralph Foster Museum, displays the work of famous Ozarks painter Thomas Hart Benton. His “Departure of the Joads” painting was used as the frontispiece for John Steinbeck’s novel “The Grapes of Wrath,” and his lithographs are part of the museum’s permanent collec-tion. Steve Miller’s murals in the C of O Library are well worth seeing.
The Veterans Memorial Museum is home to the world’s largest war memorial bronze sculpture. It is 70 feet long, weighs 15 tons and por-trays the likenesses of 50 actual combat soldiers, representing each state, by sculptor Fred Hoppe, Jr. The museum also features a variety of other sculptures and paintings, including “Red-Tails Strike Again” by artist Mike Hagel.
Just north of Branson is Bonniebrook, home of famous artist, illustra-tor, sculptor, writer and creator of the Kewpie Doll, the late Rose O’Neill. On the grounds are two of O’Neill’s imaginative Sweet Monster sculp-tures, “Embrace of the Tree” and “The Fauness.” The Kewpie Museum houses O’Neill’s original works.
Much of the history of the Ozarks can be traced through the crafts of local residents. For generations, residents of the Ozark Mountains made what they needed to survive in the hills. This included quilts, pot-tery, baskets, glassware, wrought iron and more.
Today, craftsmanship is an integral part of the area’s culture and is celebrated with festivals, events and permanent exhibitions. Plumb Nellie Days and Autumn Daze are held downtown each spring and fall, showcasing arts & crafts created by area residents. At Silver Dollar City theme park, visitors can watch craftsmen demonstrate the arts of bas-ket weaving, glass blowing, ironworking and woodcarving, among oth-ers. Each fall at Silver Dollar City, the National Harvest Festival brings in dozens of additional artists and craftsmen to demonstrate their skills. Guests can purchase one-of-a-kind heirloom-quality items made by the artisans.
Old-time crafts can also be seen at the Shepherd of the Hills Historic Homestead where turn-of-the-century works of traditional art are on display daily. The Branson Mill Craft Village features the work of more artisans, many of them working on site to showcase their wood, textile, glass and leather art and crafts.

Within minutes of the bright lights of Branson, outdoor enthusiasts enjoy ziplining, hiking, biking, camping, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding, trout and bass fishing, hunting, trap and skeet shooting, spelunking, rock climbing and recreational and competitive sporting activities. Area public parks, beaches, resorts, campgrounds, forests and recreational facilities abound. The Branson/Lakes Area has three pristine lakes with hundreds of miles of natural shoreline and more than 100,000 acres of city, state, federal and privately-owned forest, conservation, wildlife, wilderness and park areas available to visitors.
Included in the Branson area on Hwy. 76 W, guests can hike the trail at the 1,574-acre Ruth and Paul Henning Conservation Area. There are three hiking trails, a cave and a view of Lake Taneycomo within the 130-acre Lakeside Forest Wilderness Area on Fall Creek Road.
Missouri’s 1.5-million acre Mark Twain National Forest offers guests a wealth of outdoor recreational opportunities in and around the nearby towns of Kimberling City and Forsyth.
TOPOGRAPHy The Ozark Mountain terrain of caves, streams, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, grasslands, forests, steep rocky hillsides, bottomland and glades make up the breathtaking topography of the Branson/Lakes Area.
BALDS Although hardwood forests cover much of the Branson/Lakes Area, one of the most intriguing features is the “glades,” frequently referred to as “balds” by locals because of their characteristically sparse terrain of semi-desert soil, ledge-rock, scattered cedar trees and prairie plants amidst rolling seas of oak and hickory trees. You’ll most often see glades on the south- and west-facing slopes of hills where intense and prolonged sunlight coupled with fires started by lightning or by Native Americans and early settlers have kept them relatively clear of trees.
BALD KNOBBERS The area’s balds served as important meeting spots for the 1880’s vigilante justice gangs that organized in Taney County after many years of lawlessness following the Civil War. Started by upstanding citizens, the Bald Knobbers, as they became known, concealed their identities for fear of retribution by criminals and eventually lost popular support due to their increasingly ruthless and seemingly indiscriminate tactics.

OZARK MOUNTAIN GOLF OASIS Branson is full of stars, be they entertainers on theater stages,
flickering fireflies over the Ozark Mountains, or honors being bestowed upon the area’s golf courses. Several have garnered “best-in-kind” acclaim from national publications GOlf, Golf Digest, Golf World and Golfweek, Branson area golf courses are among North America’s best.
One of the newest courses, designed by Bobby Clampett, The Payne Stewart Golf Club is an 18-hole course named for the late, great golf pro Payne Stewart. He was from Springfield, Missouri, and the course honors his character and life with plaques at every hole.
Branson Creek was named a “Top 100 in America” by Golf Digest. This 18-hole championship course has been described as “playing two different courses” because of the elevation difference; the front nine plays the valley, the back nine plays the ridge.
Many courses stay open year-round with reduced rates (November through March) and discounts for afternoon play during hot weather, for multiple players and in combination with lodging packages. Most of these courses can accommodate tournaments and corporate special events, and offer private instruction by appointment.
Ladies love golfing in Branson, too. Several of the courses are shorter, and many are designed for all skill levels, including forward tees, greens with open fronts, few forced carries and multiple tee boxes. The Branson Area Golf Council is a great source of information about the area’s courses. Visit www.golfbranson.com.
With an outstanding list of added honors and awards to their credit by Golf Digest, Golf Week, and Travel and leisure Golf magazine among others, the Branson area courses are among the nation’s finest.
Integrating inspired course designs by Tom Fazio and Jack Nicklaus with rugged Ozark Mountain topography, these courses offer scenic and challenging play for beginners and avid golfers alike. Players can expect to find lush Bermuda and Zoysia fairways and tees, bent grass greens, plenty of waterfalls, lakes, creeks and bunker features, and a variety of open and tree-lined fairways.

THREE PRISTINE LAKES The Branson/Lakes Area is well known for its three pristine lakes: Table Rock, Taneycomo and Bull Shoals. Water sports enthusiasts can swim, water ski, wakeboard, tube, boat, sail, scuba dive, jet ski, parasail, kayak and, of course, fish. The lakes’ waters never freeze, welcoming visitors’ activities year-round. All three lakes offer resort lodging, camping and picnicking facilities and easy access to the water at a number of public marinas and boat docks/launch areas. Several commercial docks offer fishing guide services and a wide range of boat rentals including ski boats, pontoon boats, bass boats and wave runners. Many of the resorts on the three lakes offer guide service, rental boats and private dock facilities for visitors’ boats as well.
TABLE ROCK LAKE Accessible from multiple public and privately-owned locations just minutes to the west of Branson, Table Rock Lake has been delighting visitors and residents alike since it was formed by the damming of the White River in 1959. While visitors can find dozens of places to stay and play along the banks of Table Rock Lake, the area’s commercial developments have placed a high priority on preserving the scenic beauty of the natural shoreline, bluffs, forests and wildlife.
FISHING TABLE ROCK LAKE Missouri’s deepest (200 feet) and clearest reservoir, Table Rock is nationally recognized as a top bass fishing lake. Large numbers of largemouth, smallmouth, Kentucky spotted bass and white bass thrive in its diverse underwater structure and immense forage base. Bass, crappie and large bluegill are caught in abundance. Catfish of all sizes also roam the lake bottom. For a seasonal fishing guide to Table Rock Lake, see page 45. Many area resorts and marinas can hook you up with an experienced fishing guide, and there are dozens of regional and local tournaments held on Table Rock Lake each year.
TABLE ROCK LAKE FACTS • 43,000 to 52,300* acres of surface area (* depending on the water level) • 857 miles of shoreline • Table Rock Dam and Powerhouse completed in 1959 • The dam is 6,423 feet long and 252 feet high.

LAKE TANEyCOMO Accessible from many points, including downtown Branson, Rockaway Beach, Forsyth, Powersite, Hollister and the Fall Creek area, Lake Taneycomo was formed with the completion of Powersite Dam in 1913. It was originally a section of the White River, and although Taneycomo is now technically a lake, it retains the look and feel of a river. When Table Rock Dam was completed at Taneycomo’s headwaters in 1959, the nature of the lake changed. Taneycomo’s water now comes from the bottom of Table Rock Lake, making it a cold water lake. The cold, clear water, stocked annually with approximately 750,000 rainbow trout, makes Taneycomo a world-class trout fishery.
Resorts and full-service public marinas offer canoeing, kayaking, fishing boats, motors, guides, tackle and pontoons for relaxing and fun-filled lake activities.
FISHING LAKE TANECOMO The uppermost portion of the lake is reserved for artificial lures only
such as tiny jigs and crankbaits. These headwaters are also ideal for fly
fishing with flies that imitate the freshwater shrimp and other natural bait that trout feed upon. The locals say the best way to catch trout is by drifting salmon eggs or angleworms. Affix the eggs or worms to a small hook and cast into holes with an ultra light rod and reel. This method used from a drifting boat or from a dock will yield a nice stringer of trout.
Lower Lake Taneycomo harbors a well-kept secret. The downstream area closer to Forsyth offers considerably warmer water and many other species of fish, making Taneycomo a versatile and challenging destination for anglers who are aware of its changing character from one end to the other. Fishing guides are available to help you make the most of your Lake Taneycomo experience.
LAKE TANEyCOMO FACTS • 2,000+ acres of surface area • 40+ miles of shoreline • 58 degrees - average water temperature • 750,000 + rainbow and brown trout stocked annually
FISHING LICENSES Fishing Licenses are required to fish in the State of Missouri and the fees are as follows: Residents under 16 and over 65 are not required to have a basic fishing license. Daily fishing permits are available. Military serving in the armed forces of the United States, and all members of the United States armed forces and their immediate families stationed and residing in Missouri, may receive resident permit privileges. More infor-mation may be found at mdc.mo.gov
Check Missouri’s trout fishing permit requirements from the Department of Conservation by calling (417) 895-6880 or visiting its website at www.missouriconservation.org prior to your fishing trip on Lake Taneycomo. You can also consult a local guide service, marina or resort for up-to-date fishing regulation information. Area merchants offer fishing licenses.

Historic Downtown Branson, just east of US 65 along the shores of Lake Taneycomo, is where Branson got its start around 1888 and the city celebrated its centennial in 2012. Fires and floods couldn’t stop the fledgling community from growing and developing along the banks of the White River. The community was rebuilt more than once to provide for the needs of the area and its residents.
Today, Historic Downtown Branson is
reminiscent of a century-old village with its preserved and restored building facades, tree-lined brick sidewalks and Victorian lamp posts. The sidewalks feature granite stones that bear testimony to Branson’s commitment to all branches of the United States Armed Forces. Memorial markers give honor to some of its notable citizens. A magnificent near-life-size mural recreates a scene reminiscent of life as it once was along Commercial Street.
Branson is known for its many shows. Downtown hosts the Historic Owen’s Theatre, the first theatre, built in 1934 and located just across the street is the Hot Hits Theatre.
A variety of affordable shops and stores are all within an easy stroll. Free trolley rides offer an excursion throughout this historic downtown with its flavor of an old-time Main Street, a mid-20th century train and depot, live entertainment, Ozarks music and choices of restaurants that offer homemade meals, from the eclectic Table 22 to the down-home Farmhouse restaurant. Fudge, homemade candy, ice cream shops, snacks and more are all within easy walking distance. The
1906 restored railroad depot is now home to Branson Scenic Railway, which offers picturesque rides through the Ozarks countryside in authentic 1950s luxury passenger cars.
Visitors from near and far find unique
shopping opportunities in the historic downtown. Its more than 80 “mom and pop” stores offer unique merchandise. Dick’s 5 & 10, a Historic Downtown Branson landmark, celebrated 50 years in 2011. This one-of-a-kind, family-owned and operated retail store offers hours of shopping and browsing through its more than 50,000 select items and unique collections offers entertainment for all ages. A trip to Dick’s is a shopping experience that is different from any other.

Lake Taneycomo is a premier fishing locale that offers visitors the opportunity to spend a relaxing day sightseeing or fishing on the water.

line-up of entertainers throughout the event, plus a special booth where performers can meet and greet their fans. A very popular feature of Plumb Nellie Days is its Friday night street dance with a live band.
Few changes have been made since Plumb Nellie Days made its debut in April 1960. More than 100 artisans, crafters, food vendors and pony rides along with a traditional sidewalk sale hosted by Downtown Branson merchants are reminiscent of markets from days gone by.
Historic Downtown Branson hosts its Annual Fiddle Festival and
Mid-American Fiddlers Championship on the corner of Commercial and Atlantic streets each fourth weekend in August.

night features western swing and square dancing. Sunday morning offers a Gospel Celebration. Demonstrations throughout the event include dance lessons, mandolin making, fiddle restoration, yodeling and upright bass techniques.
Visitors to the area will be able to take a bit of Branson’s rich history
home with them at Autumn Daze Arts and Crafts Festival on the third weekend of September. More than 100 crafters with homemade wares and artwork satisfy the needs of early holiday shoppers during the annual event. The three-day event is downtown on the street at the corners of Commercial and Main streets. The main stage will feature Branson’s noted and local talent daily with a free live concert and street dance on Friday night. Other Autumn Daze highlights include sidewalk sales and a comfortable food court.

A MARVELOUS BEGINNINGFor more than 100 years, the Branson/Lakes Area has been
attracting visitors to the Ozarks, lured by natural beauty and outdoor recreational activities. The first family attraction to draw visitors was Marvel Cave (beneath the property where Silver Dollar City theme park is currently located). First called Marble Cave because its limestone walls were thought to be marble, the cave was described by geologists in the 1860s and explored in the 1880s by adventurers who lowered themselves on ropes 200 feet into the main chamber.
Scientific American magazine described the cave in 1885, and word of the natural wonder spread throughout the continent. Canadian mining expert William Henry Lynch read of the cave, purchased it sight unseen, traveled to the Ozarks and, with his two daughters, opened the cave for public tours in 1894.
On the advice of his physician, minister Harold Bell Wright traveled from his home in Kansas to the Ozarks in 1898 to seek a more suitable climate for his health. He stayed at the homestead of John and Anna Ross, whom Wright later immortalized as the characters Old Matt and Aunt Mollie in his best-selling novel “The Shepherd of the Hills.”
Published in 1907, the book told the story of the self-reliant and stoic hill people he encountered in the area and of the wooded valleys, the mountain “balds” and the incredible cave he had seen.
The book was a huge success. Millions of copies were sold in several languages, and four movies were filmed, including a 1941 version starring John Wayne, in his first Technicolor film. Wright’s novel has become the fourth most widely read book in publishing history.
Following the publication of “The Shepherd of the Hills,” local residents began noticing a great influx of visitors. Many came to the Ross homestead. The Rosses eventually sold their homestead to Miss Lizzie McDaniel of Springfield, who began presenting the very first dramatization of Wright’s story, right on the front lawn.
When Ozark Beach Dam (also called Powersite Dam) was built in 1913 near Forsyth and Lake Taneycomo was created, the area became quite a haven for outdoor enthusiasts who came to fish, boat, swim, hunt and enjoy the rugged beauty of the Ozark Mountains. Travelers flocked to the Ozarks on the newly-built White River Line railroad that stopped in the neighboring town of Hollister.
|| LOCAL HISTORY
1950 - 1969TV SHOWS AND HYDROELECTRIC POWER
The area first gained national prominence in the entertainment industry in 1954 when Red Foley, a legendary country singer with 38 top ten hits, moved to Springfield, Missouri, from Nashville, Tennessee, to host “Ozark Jubilee,” one of the first successful network television shows.
In 1959, the area was changed forever with the completion of Table Rock Dam. This brought much needed power to the area, spurring the growth of many area businesses. Until 1959, Rockaway Beach, located just a few miles east of Branson on the banks of Lake Taneycomo, had long been a playground for America’s rich and famous with movie stars and U.S. presidents among those who retreated to the small resort community.
Construction of a dam created Table Rock Lake, nationally renowned for bass fishing and water sports. In addition, the cold water from the bottom of Table Rock Lake that was now flowing into Lake Taneycomo changed it into one of the country’s most popular trout fishing lakes.
BRANSON’S FIRST FAMILIES OF ENTERTAINMENTBALDKNOBBERS JAMBOREE
In 1959, Mabe brothers Bob, Bill, Lyle, and Jim began performing twice a week in a converted roller skating rink on the Lake Taneycomo waterfront in downtown Branson. The brothers combined popular country tunes with Ozark Mountain music and threw in a dash of comedy to entertain audiences. In 1969, the Baldknobbers, as the brothers called themselves, built a theater on Highway 76, making their act the longest continuously running show.
SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS HOMESTEAD & OUTDOOR DRAMAA few miles east of Silver Dollar City, Dr. Bruce Trimble and his
wife, Mary, began staging an outdoor pageant in 1959 based on the best-selling novel “The Shepherd of the Hills.” The amphitheater was actually located on the site where the models for author Harold Bell Wright’s characters lived. Under Mary, her son Mark and his wife Lea’s direction, the production grew into one of the nation’s most popular outdoor historical dramas.
In 1985, Gary Snadon (school teacher and former cast member of the outdoor drama) along with his wife, Pat, purchased the homestead. They added the 230-foot tall inspiration tower in 1989, and in 1990, had the Morgan County Church relocated to the homestead to signify the churches where Wright once preached.
Today, the Shepherd of the Hills is the longest-running outdoor drama in the world and boasts a cast of more than 80 actors, dozens of animals, pyrotechnical displays and authentic props and sets. The Sons of the Pioneers perform in a chuckwagon dinner show on the Homestead grounds.
SILVER DOLLAR CITYIn 1960, the long-term plans of Hugo and Mary Herschend came to
fruition with the opening of a small, old-time Ozarks village attraction atop the long-popular Marvel Cave, about 10 miles west of Branson on Hwy. 76. They called it Silver Dollar City, and it offered an 1880s steam train ride, demonstrating craftsmen, themed shops and music. The first year, it drew 125,000 people.
Following Hugo’s death, Mary and her sons Jack and Peter continued to direct the growth of the family business, and by 1963, Silver Dollar City was Missouri’s top tourist attraction. In 1967, Silver Dollar City received national exposure when the popular “Beverly Hillbillies” television show filmed five episodes at the park.
The company later expanded to include other popular Branson
attractions: White Water water park, the Showboat Branson Belle and Celebration City theme park. Today, Silver Dollar City has grown into a multi-million dollar entertainment complex. The park also hosts six themed festivals each year.
In 1998, Silver Dollar City was given the Applause Award by the
International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions as the top theme park in the world. The family-owned company, Herschend Family Entertainment, currently owns, operates or partners in 19 properties in nine states. In 2004, Jack and Peter Herschend were inducted into the Hall of Fame of the amusement industry’s largest organization worldwide, the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions.
PRESLEYS’ COUNTRY JUBILEEIn 1963, the Presley family began a music show at The Underground
Theater near Talking Rocks Cavern in Kimberling City with special guests from “Ozark Jubilee,” including Red Foley. They made history in 1967 when they built the first music theater on Hwy. 76. Today, Presleys’ Country Jubilee stars four generations of Presley family members including three original members of the show: Lloyd Presley and his sons Gary and Steve. Together with other cast members, they perform a variety of musical styles on a wide range of instruments, and do comedy skits.
1970 – 1979 EARLY THEATER DEVELOPMENT1970 – Mutton Hollow Entertainment and Craft Village opened on
west Hwy. 76, at the site where scenes from “The Shepherd of the Hills” novel took place. Shad and Mollie Heller opened the Corn Crib amphitheater on Hwy. 76 with “The Toby Show,” which ran for 17 years.
1973 – The Foggy River Boys and The Plummer Family opened. Dolly Parton, Buck Trent and Porter Wagoner performed at the Baldknobbers Jamboree. Buck Trent returned to open his own show in 1991 and today performs at the Clay Cooper Theatre across from the Titanic.

1976 – Bob Mabe sold his share of the Baldknobbers Jamboree to his brothers, purchased land further west on Hwy. 76, and built an

1990 – 1999 THE BOOMOn December 8, 1991, the popular “60 Minutes” TV program
proclaimed Branson the “live music capital of the entire universe.” There were only 22 theaters in operation. Today, Branson has more than twice that many, due in part to that turning-point proclamation.
Many agree that “60 Minutes” launched Branson into a new era of growth by revealing to the world the wonderful playground of fun and entertainment this small southwest Missouri town had become. Performers, visitors, developers and new residents flocked to see what was going on.
Throughout the 1990s, Branson not only saw tremendous growth in the number of theaters, but the number of hotels, motels, Bed & Breakfasts, lakeside resorts, restaurants, attractions, shopping malls, condominium and housing developments, service businesses, and healthcare facilities grew proportionally as well.
Big Cedar Lodge, Pointe Royale, Thousand Hills, Holiday Hills and Top of The Rock added resort and golf amenities to the area. Branson Creek Golf Course opened in 1999 and received top honors by industry publications such as Golf Week and Golf Digest, including being ranked in the Top 100 courses in the nation.
Silver Dollar City made several expansions in the 1990s including the addition of a children’s water attraction called Geyser Gulch and dozens of shops, restaurants and theatrical events.
The City of Branson and Taney County undertook major infrastructure projects in the 1990s to accommodate the influx of new visitors and residents. Over the past 10-plus years, the City has invested more than $40 million in road improvements, making it easy to get around town.

SAFE BOATING TIPSTIP #1 Grab a life jacket and wear it. Accidents happen too fast on the water to reach for a stowed life jacket. Don’t just carry a life jacket, wear it. Children 14 and under are required to wear a life when on board in Missouri. It is also a good idea to wear one while on the dock. Don’t be a statistic, 90% of those who drown while boating were not wearing a life jacket. Encourage your friends and fam-ily to put on a life jacket. The new styles are comfortable and lightweight. Life jackets only work if you wear them.
TIP# 2 It doesn’t take much al-cohol to make a boater lose his/her awareness of the surround-ings, cause operator inattention, or careless/reckless operation. For those affected by alcohol or drugs, pick a sober operator. Ad-just your speed to the conditions. Watch for bad weather. Look to the west for big wind shifts or listen to an AM radio station for static. If you have a marine radio, switch to the weather channel. Make sure your boat complies with federal requirements. For a FREE vessel safety check by a qualified Coast Guard Auxiliary, contact Tom at 417-338-6093.
TIP# 3 Attend a safe boating class. You will benefit even if you are a seasoned boater. When you pass this class most insur-ance companies will reduce your premium. To sign up for classes call Gibson Tech at 417-272-3271. If you were born after Janu-ary 1, 1984 in Missouri you are required to pass a safe boating class to operate a boat.
TIP# 4 Before leaving in your boat, file a float plan. While fuel-ing close all hatches, doors and portholes. If you use portable tanks take them off the boat to be fueled. Before docking or undocking, plan the procedure in advance. Be aware of your wake because you are responsible for injuries or damage you cause. Because the Coast Guard recog-nizes personal water craft (PWC) as full-fledged boats, they must adhere to the same rules and regulations as larger boats.

shoreline stretching along Lake Taneycomo, fishermen come to enjoy one of the top Rainbow and German Brown Trout fishing lakes in Amer-ica. Legend has it that years ago Al Capone vacationed in Rockaway Beach during his heyday. You can see his alleged hideaway across the lake from downtown.
JAMES RIVERA beautiful 30-minute drive west of Branson is the historic James Riv-
er. Named after one of the first settlers in this area, the river had been a favorite Native American camping site for thousands of years. In the early 1800’s, several of our earliest pioneer settlements were located along the river, drawn by the clear, pure water and abundant fish and wild game. Early in the 20th century, the locals invented the “jon” boat. These long, narrow wooden boats were very stable yet easy to maneu-ver in the shallow, swift current of the local rivers. Come experience the natural beauty of the Ozarks where float fishing was invented.
BUFFALO NATIONAL RIVER, ARKANSASThe Buffalo River National Park begins as a trickle in the Boston
Mountains of northwest Arkansas and our country’s first national river flows 150 miles to the east through the Ozarks and into the White River. The Buffalo River is considered to be one of our nation’s last significant naturally-flowing rivers in regards to its size, wild qualities, Karst forma-tions and associated natural, scenic and historic resources.
The Buffalo River National Park offers hiking, camping, hunting, fishing and canoeing and has designated trails and wilderness areas. Horse-back riding is also permitted in small groups and on the owners’ horses.
EUREKA SPRINGS, ARKANSASA short drive southwest of Branson 50 miles into Arkansas will take
you to Eureka Springs, the only town in America where the entire down-
town is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Eureka Springs has 63 springs within the city limits and more than 100 springs just outside the city. Originally founded because of the belief in the healing powers of the springs, Eureka Springs remains a charming, Victorian village with more than 230 streets that wind around the hills leading to picturesque Victorian-style bed and breakfast inns, art galleries, gour-met restaurants, wedding chapels, public parks and numerous spe-cialty shops. The town is home to more than 250 Victorian painted lady houses, bed & breakfasts and historic buildings such as the historic 1886 Crescent Hotel and Spa and the 1905 Basin Park Hotel.
More than 200 local artists and crafters offer a wonderful array of paintings, sculptures, mobiles, fountains and jewelry inside dozens of downtown shops. The Great Passion Play, named “America’s #1 At-tended Outdoor Drama,” presents the epic of Jesus Christ’s last week on earth.
