SILVER DOLLAR CITY

THE BRETTS CHRISTMAS SHOW

ADORATION PARADE The 73rd Adoration Parade will take place on Sunday, December 5 at dusk. Branson celebrates keeping Christ in Christmas on this special night. With the lighting of the Adoration scene atop Mt. Branson, it is an overwhelming outpouring of love from our community as we come together to honor the story of Jesus’ birth. AMERICA’S CHRISTMAS TREE CITY Many cities around the country have one impressive Christmas tree that is the center of their holiday celebrations. Branson, however, “America’s Christmas Tree City” has more than two dozen trees 25’ or taller. The Branson Christmas Coalition, working year-round to inspire, encourage and facilitate Christmas tree displays throughout the area, put a special emphasis on “landmark trees” and the community responded like never before. The Track Family Fun Parks have constructed a tree made from 500 upcycled go-kart tires that is 25 feet tall. Branson has its first floating Christmas

NORTH POLE ADVENTURE AT SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS

tree at the Paddlewheel restaurant on Lake Taneycomo at Branson Landing. Hiltons of Branson have added to their spectacular “Vintage” trees, made from repurposed wine bottles that debuted at their Convention Center property. And the new creative Christmas tree at Ripley’s Odditorium simply “must be seen” to be believed – it is covered with eyeballs! One of the tallest trees in Branson is located in front of Sight & Sound Theatre, on Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, and it’s both massive and spectacular. The 46’ tree has a 6’ star on top, more than 4,300 LED lights and 1,260 ornaments. It’s a definite selfie spot each season. The area’s largest tree is the 80’ Christmas tree located in the park at Silver Dollar City with special effects that light up the City’s entire square in time with holiday music. In addition to those counted for the trees 25’ and taller list, is the entire collection at Silver Dollar City, which is a Christmas tree category

all its own. Silver Dollar City has five more lighted trees that are 40’ or taller. No surprise the theme park was voted the nation’s top holiday celebration by the readers of USA Today four years in a row. These amazing trees, and many, many more are aglow throughout Ozark Mountain Country this Christmas season.

SILVER DOLLAR CITY AN OLD TIME CHRISTMAS (November 6 -December 30) One of the nation’s most acclaimed holiday festivals, An Old Time Christmas features the Christmas in Midtown Light Spectacular, Rudolph’s Holly Jolly™ Christmas Light Parade, a towering special effects Christmas tree, two Broadway-style Christmas productions and 6.5 million lights.

The many choices of music include pop, country, rock ‘n’ roll, gospel, patriotic, Broadway, western, big band, swing, bluegrass, jazz, classical and more. Music made famous by classical composers, cowboy poets, cinematic blockbusters, ’50s heartthrobs, ’60s pop bands and today’s Top 40 artists can be enjoyed from early morning until late at night in Branson. Comedians are a Branson

mainstay, both as headliners and as specialty acts during some of our zany variety shows. It’s easy to meet the stars in Branson because many of them welcome the opportunity to sign autographs and pose for pictures wherever they are, whether in the lobby after the show or out on the golf course. Most performers live in the area full-time and can often be seen enjoying the same shows and attractions that you do. If you run into a Branson celebrity, feel free to go up and say hello.

HISTORIC DOWNTOWN BRANSON

This special “Reunion Section” is specifically designed to provide you with information to ensure a successful, wellplanned and highly attended reunion. No matter the affinity of the reunion you may plan – Military, Family, or Class Reunion – a Branson itinerary is sure to please everyone.

REUNIONS 10 HELPFUL

Tips

The Branson Convention & Visitors Bureau is your ticket to planning a successful reunion in Branson. These 10 tips have been developed to help in your planning process. Because we know that planning your reunion well in advance with a timeline of what to do and when are important tools to work with. 1. DETERMINE THE PURPOSE If the reunion is to bring together people who have not seen each other for many years, the activities you plan may be quite different than those for a family whose members see each other more often. [44] www.ExploreBranson.com

The Branson Convention & Visitors Bureau provides a valuable complimentary service which allows you to obtain proposals based on your lodging specifications, group information on our fabulous shows and attractions, restaurants and caterers and essential transportation needs. Request expert and dependable event planning services from Branson’s package travel companies for your reunion through our Request For Proposal (RFP) service on the next page. To submit an RFP simply visit www.ExploreBranson.com/groups/reunions and click “Submit an RFP.” Or call 417-243-2105 for helpful staff assistance.

2. DETERMINE ATTENDANCE AND SET THE DATE Dates for the reunion should be confirmed at least a year in advance to allow members to plan for vacation time and save money for the trip. Send out “Save The Date” notifications. If people are traveling a considerable distance to attend, it is a good idea to take several days for the reunion, or at least a long weekend. And remember, no date is going to be perfect for everyone, so develop a consensus.

4. MAKE IT EASY AND SAVE TIME – SUBMIT AN RFP The Leisure Group Sales staff offers a wealth of services to make your planning easy. One of the most valuable complimentary services is the opportunity for you to submit an RFP to gain bids for lodging, dining, tickets to various shows and attractions, planning services and more. All you need to do is provide the information, then sit back and wait for the bids to come to you.

3. DETERMINE BUDGET Determine costs incurred by the group (i.e., catering or group meals, facilities rental, postage, etc.) and divide among the participants. Some reunions charge a “registration fee” to cover incidentals. Make sure that you specify exactly what is and what is not included in the fee when you send out the invitations. You will want to set a due date in advance (a couple of months at least), for a percentage of the fee to be sent to you. This will also help solidify the guest list. Keep good records, maintain the set budget while staying in communication.

5. SELECT LODGING AFTER RECEIVING RFP RESPONSES Branson has many great lodging properties and camping facilities available from value-priced motels to lakefront resorts and luxury hotels. When booking your lodging, ask the reservationist if your group size qualifies for a group discount. Consider whether your reunion would like a hospitality room, banquet room, catered meals on-site and/or a restaurant on-site or within walking distance. Upon making reservations, request a confirmation letter from the lodging property spelling out all the details to


style; a mixture of these options is usually a good idea. When making reservations at a restaurant for a large group, request a letter of confirmation that spells out the details and cost of beverage, meal, tax and gratuity and any service fees attached. Be sure to have your guests notify you if they have special dietary needs and add that to the contract before signing and returning. You could include space for this in your registration form. 9. NOTIFY ATTENDEES Once you have finalized your itinerary, it is now time to send out your detailed invitations. Do this well in advance (six months to eight months out) and send a reminder several weeks before the occasion. Include dates, accommodation details, a preliminary itinerary, reunion contact person with phone number, all costs, payment procedure, and appropriate clothing and other incidentals. This internet link will take you to our website page with information about our year-round climate: www.ExploreBranson. com/about/weather 10. ENLIST ASSISTANCE Retain the committees throughout the event so that one person does not have to take care of all the details. Delegate tasks before the event: set-up, cooking, clean-up, picture taking and other tasks. As the event approaches, remember to always be prepared. Have a contingency plan for inclement weather; provide extra sunscreen, simple first aid materials, snacks and other needs.

ANTHEMS OF ROCK

avoid surprises. The letter should include dates, number of people, price per person, cancellation terms and any other pertinent details. Review it thoroughly before signing and discuss any questions right away. Feel free to contact the Branson Convention & Visitors Bureau if you have any questions or would like to set up a site tour before making a final selection. 6. SELECT SUB-COMMITTEES TO SHARE THE WORK Not only does this help spread the responsibilities, it also allows people to feel part of the effort. Some suggestions are: • Accommodations that may include hospitality space • Meals that may include banquets and/ or catered events • Activities you will do as a group or on your own • Publicity within the group and invitations by email or mail • Specialty items such as group T-shirts, memory books, a photographer, or other items 7. PLAN ITINERARY Plan activities members can enjoy together, while also allowing some “free

THE CRYSTAL FISH

time” for visiting and enjoying Branson’s surroundings. Branson offers many venues which are group friendly with activities such as lake cruises, theaters, dinner shows and outdoor adventures. Consult the listings in this planner and you will find something for everyone. 8. PLAN MEALS Determine how many meals you will eat together - which meals are “on your own” and which group meals can be included in the “registration fee.” Decide if the meals will be banquet, buffet, or reception
