2025 Branson Demo list-What is gone and what they have become, Newly updated!!!

Image
                                                         12/09/25 UPDATED! The Branson Demo list: Hotels, Attractions and theaters that are no more, and what came after! Over the years a lot has come and gone here in Branson. I guess what motivated me to write this, were some of the crazy comments on the book. People have been saying since 2000 that Branson was going down, and that the shows were dying, a hell in a hand basket kind of mentality.

Walking through Welch's cleaners plate glass window in 1979 Pine Bluff, Ar

Image

It was all good until one day I flew  through Welch's cleaners window and it changed my trajectory for Kitchen work. I had seventeen stiches  in my left arm, which I still hold a scar today. They put me on light duty, and I was still able to work in  the Cafeteria handing out milks.  I had too much pride to accept free lunch, and I wanted to ease the  75cent burden on my mother everyday. She was single mom raising two rambunctious boys.  It wasn't much but it was my way of pitching in. I was proud that I found another way around not  receiving free lunch.       Lakeside was a beautiful school with what I called blonde brick as it was a lighter color than other  brick buildings in Pine Bluff.
