Tom Sawyer's Landing was Brand new this year...Whitewater was getting ready to open as a new water park...SDC employees were told a new ride coming in 1981 would be the American Plunge...it all happened in 1980. Check out these Flickr photos taken from Branson or Springfield newspapers that year, and take a stroll back in time some 32 years! http://www.flickr.com/photos/juniordugan  just click on the photos to enlarge them so you can read the captions/articles with them.

I'm seriously gonna build a time machine because I really want to LIVE all that stuff instead of just hearing about it and seeing pictures!

I do love the pictures though. Especially the old brochures. Thanks again Junior, you never disappoint.

8$!!?!! Outrageous..I'm not paying those prices.  Thanks for sharing.  I distinctly remember getting that 1986 brochure and being disappointed, but feeling much better about the '87 one and the cool new map.

I'm getting ready to clear out my Flickr site to prepare for the upcoming 2012 season...take one last look at this stuff before it's gone!

Haha, the irony is it cost $8 just to get a snack at Silver Dollar City these days.

Thanks for sharing the pictures Junior!
