Branson Mo Show Schedules, Branson Hotels and Branson Tickets

Calling all dogs in Branson & the surrounding areas – local dogs and visiting dogs are all invited!

The Branson AquaPlex is having a Doggie Dive-In Swim on Labor Day, Monday, September 6, 2010. See BransonWorld.com's September Events section, here, for the de(tails). The good news: the admission price is very low so you can bring a doggie item (food, toys, collar, blankets, etc) to donate to the Taney County Humane Society.

Bring your water-loving companion to the AquaPlex for some fetching, chasing, splashing - and even diving!

We just posted two more announcements – you're going to love the latest updates to BransonWorld.com's Area Appreciation Shows list. Go!

Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 7:00 pm is Opening Night for the new season of the Andy Williams All-Star Variety Show. Plus, Paul Revere & the Raiders with Bill Haley's Original Comets continue at 3:00 pm. It all happens at the Andy Williams Moon River Theatre – a beautiful place to visit.

Up late on Fridays? Joe Tinoco & Tamra Holden from the Magnificent Variety Show at the Superstars Live Theatre are the special guests this Friday, September 3, 2010 on the Branson Country USA LIVE Late Show at the Grand Country Music Hall. Start time is 11 pm. The special guests change weekly. Better make a reservation for this one!

We're so excited! We just added something helpful to the Noah, The Musical page and the Miracle of Christmas page on BransonWorld.com: a link to the seating chart for the Sight & Sound Theatre, where both shows are playing. (yes, it's the little things that keep us going) We hope you like it, and if so, be sure to click our Facebook "Like" button below (or see it here) to share this with your Facebook friends.

Don't be surprised if you see an unusual number of Red & Pink hats in Branson over the next 3 days. There's a Red Hat Society event in Branson from today through September 3, 2010. One of the highlights of the event is the Red Hat Stampede at Dixie Stampede. Just imagine an arena full of colorful hats and ladies having loads of fun. What a sight! If you're a Red Hat Lady attending the event, contact us with the place and time for the Chocolate-To-Die-For Buffet – that sounds so good that we'd love to put on a hat and stop by. Welcome to Branson & have fun, ladies!

We like how they play the air triangle! (remember...the Cat's Pajamas is an a cappella group)

We'd be willing to bet that a lot of you reading this have never taken a tour of Table Rock Dam. If you have, then you did it over 9 years ago. That was the last time tours were allowed...until this year. Tours of the Dam resumed just over a month ago on July 3, 2010. There are two types of tours:

• Ride The Ducks & Table Rock Dam Tour (departing from the Hwy 76 Ride The Ducks location) – This tour includes the Duck's Land & Lake Adventure, plus a walking tour inside Table Rock Dam
• Table Rock Dam Tour Only (departing from the Dewey Short Visitor Center) – This tour includes a ride on a San Francisco Cable Car, plus a walking tour inside Table Rock Dam

As you can imagine, there are some important security restrictions. Check them here.

Also, how do you feel about being in confined, damp spaces? If you're good with that, then you're good-to-go! Ticket prices here.

We see stars – and you will too November 1, 2010. Look for more holiday lights along Highway 76 this holiday season. There will be 25 new stars with LED bulbs lining the highway. Now the displays will be all the way from Downtown Branson to Shepherd of the Hills Expressway. That's a lot of stars!

Coming soon to the Tri Lakes Center:

• Gene Watson & Leona Williams on Sunday, September 12, 2010
• Don Williams on Saturday, October 9, 2010
• Front Men Tour featuring Randy Owen from Alabama, Richie McDonald from Lonestar & Larry Stewart from Restless Heart on Friday, October 22, 2010

Very cool: get autographs from all these stars...NO VIP passes needed!
