Lake Area Chamber Happenings

The Magic Dragon Car Show is a much loved annual event here at the Lake of the Ozarks.  We are all looking forward to a weekend filled with family fun and memory making.  Plus, we are excited about providing the chance to win a car!  In addition, there are so many things to do and see on the Bagnell Dam Strip.  Not to mention … the food and drink options are AMAZING, and so are the shops and live music venues!  Sounds like fun for all if you ask us.  1) Family Time.   One of the most heartfelt connections between the generations can be made through cars.  Do you remember the twinkle in your grandpa’s eyes as he told you about the car he had when he was 16?  Did you work on your own car with your dad to keep in maintained and maybe fix it up or customize it?  Do you love to teach your kids and grandkids about taking care of things?  Those are the kind of memories that allow parents and kids and grandkids to relate in ways they would not otherwise.  Do you feel a sense of excitement o

This fun game of golf starts with a 3-Lady team who make their “bid” on a male “caddie” and his prize package. The male “caddie” that the team “wins” then plays with the Lady team as their fourth player. Local male golf pros, low handicap male golfers, and local “personalities” make up our caddie pool.
