General Silver Dollar City Talk / Fall numbers

« on: October 12, 2020, 11:28:05 AM »

Planning on a visit this weekend.  Is SDC still limiting the amount of guests in the park?  I know they quit the reservation requirements for season pass holders, but I never heard if they are still limiting numbers.  I know it will probably be busy since Oklahoma is on fall break this weekend, but as an educator, this is the only time I can get off at this time of year....so I just have to put up with it.

Random Talk / Prince

Man....we lost another great one.  Have you all noticed how much 2016 has sucked so far with regards to music?  So far we've lost Glenn Frey, David Bowie, Merle Haggard and now Prince.  Love him or hate him, you have to admit that Prince was a hell of a musician.  I heard he could play something like 27 different instruments.

He played a big part of my high school years!  I spent many a night in the woods with "Purple Rain" on the radio...if ya know what I mean!   

RIP Prince

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Love Works for Professional Development

« on: November 08, 2013, 09:39:00 AM »

I know there are a lot of educators here, so I'll share this with you.  During this mornings staff meeting, I discussed the story of Joel going to his Senior sports banquet and giving the head nod to the freshmen boys and how his mother taught him the importance of how to "make their life better".  Now all of my teachers are going out to buy the book.  Strange enough, it is cheaper at the City than it is on Amazon!  I told them to just to go to Silver Dollar City and experience it first hand.  You are welcome Mr. Manby!  LOL

Branson Talk / What to do?

« on: September 19, 2013, 08:44:23 PM »

Alright SDC family, I have the opportunity to spend a weekend in Branson with just the wife.  Kiddos are all locked into other activities and we need a little get away.  What are your suggestions for a little nightlife in Branson.  We'll do the SDC thing during the day, but what to do at night with no kids?  Usually we'll hit the putt-putt or catch a show, but this is rare that we get to be alone.  Any ideas?

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Big Jacks Sandwich Shop

« on: June 10, 2013, 08:25:22 PM »

What in the world happened to Big Jacks?  I remember Swoosh saying something about some changes being made.....but are they taking out Big Jacks?  If so, I'm going to be one sad and upset individual.  You don't mess with my Big Jack!

For those of you who were blessed with boys, you might enjoy this song.  Also, it'll be fun to see if you can spot the SDC photos.....

Branson Talk / Can't make up our minds

« on: May 31, 2011, 08:05:21 PM »

Ok folks...we're heading to Branson, but can't make up our minds between the Branson Belle, or the Dixie Stampede.  We have never went to the Dixie Stampede and we have done the Branson Belle, but the show is new this year.  What does my "SDC Fans" family suggest?

Branson Talk / Liverpool Legends

« on: January 18, 2010, 09:34:39 PM »

Greetings fellow SDC'ers.  I am a big time Beatles fan and have enjoyed the Liverpool Legends there in Branson nearly every time I go to Branson.  What in the world is going on though?  They just moved into the Starlite Theater and now they have moved to "The Mansion".  They have been voted best new act, best band, and visitor's choice awards yet they cannot seem to stay place in one location.  I thought they had struck gold when they moved from the Caravelle to the Starlite, but I think Bill Medley is now taking their spot.  Can't find much information yet, but why in the world do they move around when they are obviously one of the better shows in Branson?  Anyone from the area have any ideas?
