Survey Forecasts More Parents
Will Take Kids on Vacation





(NUI) - More parents will be "taking the kids" on vacation this summer, according to the latest travel survey conducted by the Travel Industry Association of America and AAA.

According to the survey, children are expected to accompany 51 percent of those planning to take a pleasure or vacation trip this summer, recovering from a dip of eight points from last year.

The survey finding is good news for popular family vacation destinations like Branson, Mo. While Branson first gained national attention in the early 1990s as America's live entertainment capital, the area's beautiful lakes and rolling Ozark mountains have long attracted family vacationers who enjoy camping, fishing, hiking and visiting one of America's premiere theme parks, Silver Dollar City.

There is no better place than Branson, Mo., for a family vacation this summer," says Randy Fiveash, president of the Branson/Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce and Convention and Visitors Bureau. "Branson has something for every member of the family. You can enjoy wholesome entertainment, fish on crystal-clear lakes, visit a theme park, and go for a hike all in the same day."

According to the travel survey, four activities appeal more to vacationers with children: going to the beach or a lake (82 percent), camping/hiking/climbing (51 percent), going fishing (50 percent) and visiting a theme park (47 percent).

Families visiting Branson this summer can fish at Table Rock, Bull Shoals or Tanyecomo Lake, or camp at one of the myriad campgrounds in the area. Families can also experience first-class horsemanship and patriotism at the Dixie Stampede.

Branson also has more than 70 daily entertainment and variety shows. Big-name performers at Branson include Tony Orlando, Wayne Newton, Bobby Vinton, Andy Williams, Jim Stafford, The Osmond Family, The Lennon Sisters, Mel Tillis and more.

For more information on Branson's entertainment, lodging and hospitality facilities, contact the Branson/Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce at P.O. Box 1897, Branson, MO 65615, telephone 1-800-742-7887.
