|| WINERIES

MISSOURI WINES There 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 mid1880s, 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.

STONE HILL WINERY Newcomers to Branson may be surprised to find Missouri’s oldest and most awarded winery as one of the town’s most popular attractions. With 12,000 square feet of space, Stone Hill Winery’s Branson location has been receiving and entertaining visitors since 1986. The winery delights thousands of tourists daily with a free, funfilled hour of touring. Tasting the many award-winning wines completes the experience. Guests are invited to soak in the delightful aromas of maturing sherry and watch the actual bottling process of one of Stone Hill’s famous wines.

MOUNT PLEASANT WINERY Mount Pleasant Winery, with their award-wining wines, offers another reason to learn more about oenology, the science and study of all aspects of wine and winemaking. More than just a terrific place to enjoy great wines, it has a wine shop, an art gallery and hands-on bottling experiences all rolled into one. Visitors to Mount Pleasant have the unique opportunity to bottle their own dessert wine from a specially designed 600-gallon French oak barrel. Be sure to visit the tasting galleries, where more than wine is on display. The tasting galleries feature the works of renowned Missouri artists — from glass and folk artisans to painters and sculptors.

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.

|| GOLF

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

LAKE TANEYCOMO

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.

|| LOCAL HISTORY A Marvelous Beginning For 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.”

60

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.

1950 - 1969 TV 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.

Silver Dollar City In 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.

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.

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.

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 Entertainment Baldknobbers 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 Drama A 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.

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 Jubilee In 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 Development 1970 – 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.

Dolly Parton later opened the Dolly Parton Dixie Stampede Dinner & Show Attraction.

1976 – Bob Mabe sold his share of the Baldknobbers Jamboree to his brothers, purchased land further west on Hwy. 76, and built an Set the stage for your trip at ExploreBranson.com | 1-877-BRANSON

1,800-seat theater, the largest in the area at the time, named Bob-OLinks Country Hoedown. The Burdette Family Cloggers performed with the show from 1977 until the late 1980s when Bob retired and sold the theater to The Texans. The theater is now the Clay Cooper Theatre.

Theater (formerly the Ozarks Auto Attraction).

1990 – 1999 The Boom On 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.

1989 – Shoji Tabuchi and his wife, Dorothy, opened at the Ozark

|| COAST GUARD REGULATIONS

SAFE BOATING TIPS TIP #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 family to put on a life jacket. The new styles are comfortable and lightweight. Life jackets only work if you wear them.

96

TIP# 2 It doesn’t take much alcohol to make a boater lose his/ her awareness of the surroundings, cause operator inattention, or careless/reckless operation.

For those affected by alcohol or drugs, pick a sober operator. Adjust 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 insurance companies will reduce your premium.

To sign up for classes call Gibson Tech at 417-272-3271.

If you were born after January 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 fueling 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 recognizes personal water craft (PWC) as full-fledged boats, they must adhere to the same rules and regulations as larger boats.

Springfield Convention and Visitors Bureau (800) 678-8767 or www.springfieldmo.org WALNUT SHADE Located a few miles north of Branson is Copper Run Distillery, the first legal moonshine distillery in the Ozark Mountains since the prohibition ended in 1933. Featured spirits include moonshine, gold rum, spirit whisky and vodka. With a party room that accommodates 50, events can include live music, catering and guided tours through the distillery.

Hollister The town of Hollister shares the shores of Lake Taneycomo with its closest neighbor, Branson. The downtown district is well-known for its Old English village look. The main street of town is Downing Street. The annual Grape Festival is a popular event.

Forsyth The Taney County seat is popular with those who enjoy fishing, boating and hiking. The town offers a variety of camping facilities, resorts, shops and restaurants.

Rockaway Beach Rockaway Beach, the first “Family Resort Community” west of the Mississippi River, was founded in 1917. The small, friendly lakeside town is 10 miles northeast of Branson. With a one-and-a-half mile

Shelvin Rock Access

Hollister, Missouri

shoreline stretching along Lake Taneycomo, fishermen come to enjoy one of the top Rainbow and German Brown Trout fishing lakes in America. 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 RIVER A beautiful 30-minute drive west of Branson is the historic James River. 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 maneuver 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, Arkansas The 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 formations 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. Horseback riding is also permitted in small groups and on the owners’ horses.

EUREKA SPRINGS, ARKANSAS A short drive southwest of Branson 50 miles into Arkansas will take you to Eureka Springs, the only town in America where the entire down-

Eureka Springs, Arkansas

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, gourmet restaurants, wedding chapels, public parks and numerous specialty 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 Attended Outdoor Drama,” presents the epic of Jesus Christ’s last week on earth.

Greater Eureka Springs Chamber of Commerce (479) 253-8737 or www.eurekasprings.org Conservation Areas Conservation areas such as the 31-acre Ashe Juniper natural area, located approximately 11 miles southwest of Branson, surround the Branson/Lakes Area.
