Granted it, that list is subject to change - but that is the current line up.
I would imagine that Pure Heart would show up somewhere, but have not heard IF and/or where yet
When we attended OTC a couple of years ago, one of our favorite shows was Pure Heart with Tracy Heaston. We actually watched them 3 times. Just thinking about it makes me want to go back this year (not going to happen though).

Josh, I have you covered!!! I think we r doing OTC 3 weekends this year...

Any word on what the holiday ornament is going to be? Looks like I'm going to miss it by one festival again this year. I meant to come down this weekend and make it to the Harvest Festival, but it looks like that won't be possible.

According to this week's entertainment schedule, Pure Heart will be performing at the Gazebo for 4 shows during the day. Tracy Heaston will be performing 4 shows at the Gazebo late afternoon through early evening. The tree music will be turned off during Tracy's shows.

Per SDC's Facebook page: this Saturday December 8th, park hours have been extended to 11 am-10:30 pm

(turnstiles open at 10:30 am). I remember them doing something similar last year on a busy Saturday night to accommodate everyone.

Warm temps during OTC are definitely a gift - to the City and the patrons! I think my first year at OTC was the year it snowed and sleeted. BRRR!!!!!

I wonder if they will go back to the longer hour schedule they used to have next year.

Any info on last week of operation discounts on merchandise?

sanddunerider · December 27, 2012, 07:25:15 AM

gilligan, i checked the 2013 schedule and it shows normal hours, BUT if we have mild temps during oTC again,you can expect the longer hours....

Junior, I have not seen anything about deeper discounts anywhere yet..

I was in the HH and OMP today and a lot of stuff is marked 75% off. Bought a nice Christmas sweatshirt for my wife...$4.30.

So we need to plan to go with a bucketload of cash on the last operation al day next year. Noted!
