Back by popular demand! Join us for a fun day at Treasure Island Casino for a delicious Thanksgiving-style lunch and an amazing show direct from Branson. We will arrive early before lunch so you can spend some time on the casino floor if you choose or just take a stroll, get a drink or people watch. OZARK JUBILEE features an all star cast of Branson’s top entertainers presenting, “An all new Christmas Show”, with new music, new jokes, but the same, world class talent that you have come to expect! OZARK JUBILEE will be honoring and paying tribute to our Veterans, and thanking them for their special service. The Jubilee features Branson’s funniest comedian and world class fiddler DOOFUS DOOLITTLE! If you like country music, and good clean family entertainment, you’ll want to register with all your friends to see the OZARK JUBILEE! The second half includes a variety of Christmas music. From traditional standards you'll remember such as Silent Night, White Christmas, and many more to some more contemporary Christmas selections. Minnesota Coaches will whisk us away to Treasure Island, where we will have lunch in the ballroom at Treasure Island Event Center and a fantastic afternoon of entertainment. Doors to the Ball room will open approximately 11am with lunch served at noon. We ask you to cash out before lunch or during the clearing break between lunch and the show so you will be ready to load the bus once the show is done.
