In April, 1960, Branson celebrated, with tongue in cheek, Plumb Nellie Days (Plumb Nearly Anything Goes Days).
Plumb-nearly anything was permitted during this event where people loved to act and dress strangely. The 3,000 people who participated enjoyed Plumb Nellie Days’ cakewalks, horseshoe pitching, hog calling, marble games, mumbly peg, fishing contests, foot races, celebrity speakers, band concerts and so forth. The 2013 53rd Plumb Nellie Days will once again be full of crafts, food, live entertainment and more. Crafters and artists throughout the country will participate. Shoppers will find a wide variety of items including wood crafts, quilts, clothing, crocheted or knitted items, hats, purses, ladies’ accessories, toys, floral arrangements, ironwork, collectibles and more! In addition to the many craft vendors on hand, there will also be food vendors, demonstrations, live entertainment and a street dance on Friday Night. Since Saturday, May 18 is Armed Forces Day, Plumb Nellie will salute today’s military and its warriors with a ceremony at noon. Sponsorship opportunities are still available!
