Post by: biscuitcreek on March 10, 2012, 08:13:28 AM
The Springfield News-Leader has some video links posted in connection with their article of Jack and Pete being honored by OTC.

Great pictures of the early years of Marvel Cave and the first year of the city plus more pictures and video of how the city has grown through the years.  Also has some about the 50th anniversary celebration, White Water and the Showboat.  There are interviews with colleagues and family members.  There is a short ad at the beginning of each video.

This video has more about Jack and Pete's contributions to Branson and has more about the crafts people of SDC.

I enjoyed seeing the videos on Jack and Pete. While on the same Website, I cruised through some other videos, there are some of Branson tornado damage and one with James Garrett (former SDC employee) who performs a John Denver and a George Strait show in Branson, and how he and a former employee...one of the Duggers from the reality show 19 and counting, were targets in a recent extortion attempt.
