  6. Drug Take Back

    • Did you know that 53 percent of misused prescription medications come from family and friends? The source of those prescription medications is often the home medicine cabinet. Saturday, April 27, local law enforcement and prevention coalitions will host four prescription drug take-back sites in Stone and Taney counties during the DEA National Rx Drug Take Back Day. The Taney County Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Team (ADAPT), the Stone County Community Health Coalition, and Drug Free Ozarks have partnered to promote safe medication disposal as a part of the event. Coalition volunteers will be on site during the event handing out free medication safety information and medication destruction packets. Each Take Back event gives community members the opportunity to rid their homes of potentially dangerous expired and unused prescription medications. Drug Take Back Days are a great alternative to flushing medications, which is discouraged. Drug Take Back Days and the use of the permanent drug drop boxes in Stone and Taney counties protects area waterways from contamination from medications. City and county sewer systems and private septic systems are designed to treat biological waste and do not remove medications that are flushed down the toilet or dropped down a sink. During the Take Back Day, medication drop off locations will be set up on Saturday, April 27 at the following locations: 10am to 2pm - Walgreens Pharmacy – 210 State Highway 165, Branson 10am to 2pm - Lakeland Pharmacy - 1232 Branson Hills Pkwy, Branson 10am to 2pm - Walgreens Pharmacy – 101 Industrial Park Drive, Hollister 9am to Noon - Heart Health & Recovery Walk - Port of Kimberling Marina & Resort - 201 Marina Way, Kimberling City (at the Kimberling City Police Department booth) Over-the-counter medications, pet medications, and prescription medications are accepted in pill form, liquid form, patches, and creams.

  3. Kitty Ledbetter Presentation and Book Signing

    • College of the Ozarks is hosting Kitty Ledbetter, co-author of Broadcasting the Ozarks: Si Siman and Country Music at the Crossroads, on May 3, at the Ralph Foster Museum. Ledbetter will give a presentation at 2:30 p.m. and afterwards she will have books for purchase and signing until 4 p.m. The presentation is free. Regular ticket prices will apply for those who wish to visit the museum.

      Kitty Ledbetter is emerita professor of English at Texas State University. Before entering academia, she was a disc jockey at country radio stations in Houston, Charlotte, Shreveport, and Springfield, Missouri. She is a former editor of the Journal of Texas Music History. Ledbetter will be giving a talk on The Ozark Jubilee: Si Siman and the ABC Television Network.

      "The connection of the Ralph Foster Museum to Si Siman and his family goes back decades,” said Tom Debo, Ralph Foster Museum Curator. “The Si Siman Music Room is an essential part of the experience of visiting the museum. Many of the displays in the room have recently been undergoing renovation and expanded interpretation. Kitty's program is the icing on the cake. Those attending will leave with a greater appreciation of what an incredible individual Si was, and they will do so with a laugh and a smile, as I'm sure Si wouldn't have had it any other way."

      Broadcasting the Ozarks explores the vibrant country music scene that emerged in Springfield, Missouri, in the 1930s and thrived for half a century. Central to this history is the Ozark Jubilee (1955–60), the first regularly broadcast live country music show on network television. Dubbed the “king of the televised barn dances,” the show introduced the Ozarks region to viewers across America and put Springfield in the running with Nashville for dominance of the country music industry—with the Jubilee’s producer, Si Siman, at the helm.

      Siman’s life story is almost as remarkable as the show he produced. He was booking Tommy Dorsey, Ella Fitzgerald, and Glenn Miller during the mid-1930s while still a high school student and produced nationally syndicated country music radio shows in the decades that followed. Siman was a promotional genius with an ear for talent, a persuasive gift for gab, and the energy and persistence to make things happen for many future Country Music Hall of Famers, including Chet Atkins, Porter Wagoner, the Browns, and Brenda Lee. Although Siman had numerous opportunities to find success in bigger cities, he chose to do it all from his home in the Ozarks.
