Wanted to be the first to say I have a new Times flyer!! haven't even opened yet.!! I got my mail from the weekend and it was in the pile..
quick review.:
blugrass 3 weeks again..may8 thru june1
the new summer festival is called "star spangled summer"... june 7 thru july 20
Harvest cowboy festival will be back, with the stunt show,. "NEW" wild west show...
Also "last year, gifts of Christmas light parade"
other than that info, not a lot of other info.. lots of specials, advertising, some coupons for admittance tot he park..
I haven't received anything yet. Did you say that 2014 is the last of the Christmas lights parade? That's an interesting tidbit! I am curious how they are going to pull off the Star Spangled Summer festival all summer long. Although I am sure it will be very popular around July 4th.
Ozark, this is the last year for the "gifts if Christmas light parade"...
indications are an all new parade next year. (probably)
\
I got my Times, also. I'm usually one of the last one to receive it! Woot! Woot!
I haven't gotten mine yet... :-(
we got ours yesterday. & to our surprise, there is a coupon for "2 one day tickets for $30.00." good till Dec. 1st, but only for Thurs. Fri. & Sun. but NOT good for Thanksgiving & the day after. so, what this means is, we were going to go to ol' downtown Branson with my parents on the 23rd of this month. but now it looks like we will finally get to see the christmas lights at SDC on the 22nd & hang out with my parents on the 23rd. plans are not set in stone, & if it happens, i will try to shoot video & post it. ;D
The format is different. It's a booklet instead of a fold out.
The new light parade will feature Rudolf, whom they "purchased" last year. I have been waiting to see how he would make his entrance into the park.

I cannot wait until they make the concept art public. From what I have seen, it looks like it will be pretty epic.

Fireworks foimg off from a floating barge on Lake Silver that culminates in an announcement of new industry (new farworks factree attraction)coming to the city at the end of the festival for 2015. The fly in the ointment, potential fire bans in the hills.

DH and I were never fans of the parade. Perhaps we're just the wrong age and don't have kids. But I am looking forward to the Rudolph parade next year. It's one of my top Christmas movies, and if Swoosh says it looks good then it must be good!
We haven't gotten ours yet either. We usually do, but we didn't get the last one for some reason so I'm not sure if ours will come.
My copy arrived yesterday. Below the address it has printed "Postmaster -- Please Deliver Between October 28 - November 6.
I have yet to receive mine, but maybe I will get it tonight. Ironically enough, I will be at the park this weekend. :P
Got mine today.
I'm waiting... :'(

Wadda ya know?! Ask and you shall receive, I guess. Ours came in the mail yesterday. :)
In addition to the Parking Pass they've offered in recent years they are doing a Stroller Pass ($30 for a single, $45 for a double, unlimited use of one stroller).
Yep! nice catch Ozarks gal.. I saw that, interesting idea..
I also noticed that the "made in the USA show" on the showboat will be done next year...
I am glad, because their show with the "showmen" & the "aerial violinist" is not worth seeing... (IMHO)....
however I do like the shows with the pianist, mike blick, showgirls and Dean church.. that is a great show!
I am surprised they are changing already, with these show, since they are only 3 years old.. But I think they need to keep a variety on the boat.... (todd oliver was there for 10 years! TOO Long)
It's here! Happy, happy, joy, joy! ;D

TEN YEARS? Was it really that long? We saw him twice and enjoyed it but saw he was back so avoided it. Also saw another show twice, was a patriotic dancing thing. I'm surprised they don't mix it up more. But perhaps it is difficult to do that and contracting probably isn't easy.
Gotta disagree Sand. I like the showmen and aerial violinist, and I was not impressed by the Showgirls, Mike Blick etc. I felt like I was getting the second team.
how funny is that okie?? LOL..
see I thought the showmen couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, and obviously did "dance" well together..!!! LOL
It seemed to me the violinist did more acrobactic than violin.......
OH well/.!!!... ??? ???
I got one today even though we didn't buy passes this year. Did anyone happen to look at the guest vouchers if you buy the 2 park pass? You get more days for SDC, which I didn't know but honestly never paid attention to. However on the 2 park voucher list the 2nd entry is FREE April 5-December 30 (Not Valid 11/28 & 11/29). The 5th date listed is November 1 - December 30. ?????
4/10-12/30? Seems like it must be misprint to me, I haven't went on the website to verify yet.
The Super Pass/2Park pass has always had better guest vouchers with them (including November). The new thing this year is the pass from April 5 - December 30. It can be used in-between the other dates or in conjunction with the other dates or even let your guest in free during Moonlight Madness. They are really trying to make the Super Pass the best buy. Even if you don't go to White Water I think some people can use it to their advantage.
Thanks Copper!
I got my times! I got my times ! ;D

That is good to know, thanks. I was sure it was a misprint. We've never been to White Water, but that certainly is going to make me consider the Super Pass now.
