Post your plans in Branson, Mo. - Pre CAA6
There has been a lot of discussion here and on Facebook about the visit to Branson, Missouri for Friday and/or Saturday before heading to Eureka Springs, Arkansas on Sunday for CAA6 beginning on Sunday June 14th
In an effort to see what everyone is doing I ask that you post in this thread if you will be visiting Branson and when you plan to arrive and also post what you have planned while in Branson I know several have already booked shows and reserved rooms in various hotels in town There are two common goals I would like to accomplish here: 1) To have dinner on Friday and Saturday night with everyone who can dine in one place at the same time. 2) Determine a meeting place and time for ALL of us for our departure to Eureka Springs on Sunday ....It would be fun to travel as a single convoy for the 1 hour drive to Eureka Springs on Sunday Hopefully with this thread we can coordinate some of our activities together |
Re: Post your plans in Branson, Mo. - Pre CAA6
I'll post up what I know right now
I will be arriving on Friday afternoon with a group traveling with me for 8 hours from the Chicago area My convoy group will be with Danimal (Dan) CrossfireFrank (Frank and Sue), 2005Xfire (Annette) and spagirl (Linda) and hopefully Adrian_X (Adrian & Dina) We will be staying at a hotel where RedDog (Bob & Cindy) have made reservations for Friday and Saturday night Iamfink2 (Pat) and AKING (Andy) is also arriving on Saturday will be staying here on Saturday night too This hotel is nearly full but very inexpensive Lodge At the Falls | Expedia EDIT 05/30 This is our official "have dinner get together" restaurant . . . 6:30 PM Friday night 06/12 in Branson . . . (only .4 miles from Lodge at the Falls) Danna's BBQ and Burger Shop 963 St. Hwy 165 Branson, Mo. 65616 Please join us if you are able! We have not committed to any shows or activities as of yet There has been mention of a Saturday drive to Big Cedar Lodge | Ridgedale, MO for lunch and some breathtaking photo ops This is only a tentative plan as of now We are keeping our options open and look forward to seeing what the others have planned while in Branson See ya in Branson on Friday/Saturday or in Eureka Springs on Sunday Gary |
Re: Post your plans in Branson, Mo. - Pre CAA6
I know the folks from St. Louis (Gateway Crossfire Group) on Facebook have a hotel and show package deal already set up
This is a copy and paste from their page on Facebook We are planning to leave the St. Louis area at 9:00am from the McDonalds at Hwy 44 & Hwy 141. We will head to Branson and stay at Grand Country - Branson's Waterpark Resort | They have packages available that include two nights, two shows, pizza, waterpark, and blacklight or mini golf for $318.60. Double queen rooms are $89.95 a night. http://packages.grandcountry.com/summer2015/ We plan to go to the Comedy Jamboree on Friday afternoon at 3:00pm and the Grand Jubilee Saturday evening at 7:30. Saturday afternoon we are going ziplining, doing the Ozarks Explorer Canopy Tour at 1:00. Branson Zipline and Canopy Tours Please make your own zipline reservations as soon as possible so we can be in the same group. We will leave Branson on Sunday and head to Eureka Springs. We do not have any group blocks, so you will need to make your own reservations. The sooner you do, the sooner we can all get in the same group. |

FIRST . . . Get / bring a pair of family channel walkie talkie radios with you (with fresh and extra batteries).
SET YOUR RADIO TO CHANNEL 8 WHILE YOU ARE IN BRANSON. Paraphrased from my post in the CAA#6 thread . . . Several of us are heading to Branson MO for a day or two prior to the start of CAA#6 in Eureka Springs. Cindy and I are planning to arrive in Branson on 04/12 sometime between noonish and 4:00 PM. We will be staying at the Lodge at the Falls motel . . . use this link that Gary provided to try and get a room there. Lodge at the Falls | Expedia I suggest that whoever will be in Branson on the 12th (regardless of where you are staying), lets plan to meet up in the lobby of Lodge at the Falls at 6:00 PM on the 12th. We'll go out to dinner somewhere together at a nearby restaurant and we can make additional plans from that point. EDIT: I did some research on Trip Adviser and based upon the predominantly great reviews, Danna's BBQ and Burger Shop (only .4 miles from Lodge at the Falls) might be a good choice . . . If others agree, we can make this our official choice for our dinner meeting on Friday night so that others who might not be able to make the 6:00 pm gathering at the motel lobby can just meet up with us at this restaurant . . . EDIT 05/30 . . . This is now our official "have dinner get to gether" restaurant . . . 6:30 PM Friday night 06/12 in Branson . . . Please join us if you are able! Danna's BBQ & Burger Shop, Branson - Menu, Prices & Restaurant Reviews - TripAdvisor There are LOTS of things to do and shows going on in Branson . . . http://www.bransontourismcenter.com/...t_dates=Submit For 06/13 Cindy and I have booked the Branson Scenic Railroad for the 11:30 AM run and the Bee Gees and Beyond show for that evening . . . http://www.bransontourismcenter.com/...scenic-railway http://www.bransontourismcenter.com/...ees-and-beyond Hope to see you in Branson! |

I will be arriving with convoy from Illinois about 5pm and would like to meet others here for dinner Please post again in this thread if you will be dining here on Friday night Gary |

I'm up for most anything for Saturday night The only thing I like to do is avoid a place that I have back at home Basically avoid Chain name restaurants I'd like a local non chain restaurant |
Re: Post your plans in Branson, Mo. - Pre CAA6
Fat Daddy's BBQ sounds like a better place.. but is 23 miles outside Branson.. next looks like Doc's Hickory Roadhouse.. Should we set dinner up @ 5:30 for those with shows to attend?

Should we set dinner up Saturday @ 5:30 for those with shows to attend? I called Doc's Hickory Roadhouse and spoke with Lauren She said they can accommodate a group most any size for 5:30 on Saturday if we notify them 24 hours in advance Also plenty of parking on all 4 sides of the restaurant Maybe its because I'm hungry but the menu looks very appealing They are known for their BBQ but do have other items on the menu for those who don't prefer BBQ Doc's Hickory Roadhouse BBQ - Pork Ribs & Brisket - Turkey - Chicken Doc's Hickory Roadhouse BBQ Sauce was voted #10 out of 200 in Kansas City! Hot or Original, its perfect with Ribs, Brisket, Pork, Turkey or Chicken! Doc's Hickory Roadhouse 892 S State Highway 165 Branson, MO 65616 |
