So many things can conspire to upset our plans that it is almost always best to have a plan B ready, and the mindset that no matter what may happen, we will accept things with equanimity. Think of how often a traffic jam or a detour upsets our plans to be somewhere on time. How often have you been certain that your plans for something at work or a proposal to friends would be accepted only to have them tell you they have other plans? As the stoic philosophers were constantly telling us, there are very few things about which we have complete control, and about the things which we have no control we should not worry. The things over which we have control are our opinions, our judgements, and to some extent, our desires. Consider that we live in a world where the processes of nature are beyond our control, where the billions of people who inhabit the earth are also beyond our control, and where even our own bodies are to a large extent subject to external forces and natural processes. We should try to control the things which we can, and about all the rest we should bow our head and say “thy will be done.” –Christopher Simon Bill Hardwick Matt Dreesen - Of Counsel 117 N.

SDC photo (Branson, Missouri, Jan. 20, 2020) - Kicking off 2020 as the capping of a $100-million-dollar- decade, Silver Dollar City officials are actively preparing for the 2020 season, embarking on a 60th An- niversary Diamond Jubilee. The in- ternationally-acclaimed 1880s-style theme park in Branson, Missouri begins celebrating six decades of providing family enter- tainment in the Ozarks by announc- ing an extensive list of entertainment offerings for 2.2 mil- lion annual guests. The 2020 slate includes a whole new area of a town in celebration, a new BBQ restaurant, and a best- in-class water adventure ride de- signed to honor the great cave on site, the Registered National Land- mark, Marvel Cave. Plus the 1880s-style theme park’s world- class festivals are adding big names in entertainment, new food offer- ings including a home-style cinna- mon bread bakery and new taste creations. Additionally, crowned by Congress as The Home of American Craftsmanship a decade ago, the City’s crafts colony con- tinues to build on a well-earned handcrafted legacy. “We continuously listen to our guests. Our guests let us know what they love and what they do not like. Our plans for new attrac- tions, shows and festivals continue to be based on guest research,” said Brad Thomas, President of Silver Dollar City Attractions. “During this last decade, we presented many fun and exciting additions. We anticipate this next decade will be even more exciting with even larger and bolder announcements and additions.” Silver Dollar City officials con- firm that capital investments from 2010-2020 are reaching $100 mil- lion this coming season. Coming in 2020 is the nearly $30 million all-new area of Rivertown, includ- ing the new Mystic River Falls and the Rivertown Smokehouse. Thomas says it’s Silver Dollar City’s belief in regional tourism that’s allowing this long-time Ozark Mountain theme park to be- come a true force in the worldwide amusements industry. Defining the destination as Branson/Southwest Missouri and Northwest Arkansas, officials say attendance and re- search show that the area’s strong promise of providing wholesome, quality family entertainment is meeting and, in many cases, ex- ceeding, guest expectations. Coming off several years of record-breaking attendance, Thomas said, “These are exciting times for the Silver Dollar City brand. While we celebrate our 60 year past, we are VERY excited about the future. While we have fun new additions in the works, this remains constant: Silver Dollar City will continue to be a park fo- cused on fun for families while still providing adventures and entertain- ment for adult couples. As we cel- ebrate our 60th Anniversary, this proclamation could not be truer: Our Greatest Adventures Lie Ahead.” A $100 Million Capital* Invest- ment Decade in Review: 2010: 50th Celebration/RiverBlast 2011: Half Dollar Holler 2012: It’s A Wonderful Life 2013: Outlaw Run 2014: Rudolph’s Holly Jolly™ Light Parade 2015: Fireman’s Landing 2017: Christmas in Midtown 2018: Time Traveler 2019: Harvest Festival, Craft Days & Pumpkins, Joy on Town Square/8-story multi-effect Christ- Brown; Diamond Rio; Clas- sical Mystery Tour: A Tribute To The Beatles’ Abbey Road with The Springfield Symphony; and Abba Tribute: Dancing Dream di- rect from New York.
