The Show-Me F100's is an F1 and F100 truck club for
'48-'52 F1's and '53-'79 F100 pickups and panels.

This is our official Ozarks Run page!  You'll be able to find all the information that you'll need to know for each run by checking here first (dates, registration forms, flyers, vendors, prices and anything else we've got on the list).  I'm sure you'll find it more organized too!  Stop back and check things out to make sure you stay "up to date" on the latest Show-Me F100's Ozarks Run news. UPDATE - PLEASE READ!  Click on the link below to get information about Area 57 that will be used at the 2009 show.   Area 57 2009 Set Up

Ozarks Run

July 10th, 11th, 12th, 2009
Ramada Inn & Reunion Center
1700 W Hwy 76
Branson, Mo.
800-641-4106
(for MOTEL reservations ONLY)

Check out Area 57 which is where the Ozarks Run is held.  It sits between the Ramada Inn and Dick Clark American Bandstand Theater and all festivities for the show will take place there.  No more walking up and down the hills to view trucks because they'll all be together!  We'll have specific parking for registered vehicles too so you won't have to worry about finding a place to park!  If you have a pop-up 10x10 tent, please feel free to bring it because we'll have plenty of room for you to set up and get out of the sun.  We'll also have concessions on the property, Friday night live music on stage (in the center of the grassy area), Saturday DJ, awards in the afternoon and Saturday night we'll have a drive-in for your enjoyment! Look around the Area 57 link to get an idea of what's going on with the property......check out the "Photos" section because the pictures there are of OUR show! Check back later for updates and more information as I get it!  We've a lot in store for 2009, so come join us in the fun! UPDATE:  Check out the Area 57 map with placement of trucks, vendors, music, DJ and more.  We will be following this map at the 2009 show. If you'd like to be a vendor at our show, contact me (Bj) at (417) 863-9501 (cut off date for 2009 vendors has passed).  I take vendor names and numbers early, so if you'd like to be a vendor, please contact me as early as you can.  I'm also looking for craft vendors too!  If you've missed the cut off date for this year but want to make sure you're set up for the following year, just give me a call and I'll add you to our roster for the following year and contact you early to make sure you still want to vendor at the show. Early registration for trucks starts March 1st, and the forms on the page will be active then if you want to print one out and send it with your check to me.  Early registration always gets you a little something "extra" in your goody bag, and if you register between March 1st and April 15th, you can add a FREE t-shirt to that registration price!  Registrations taken until July 1st - after that date please register at the show.  Dick Clark American Bandstand Theater does not have registration forms or flyers to send you, so please make all inquiries with me.  Thanks!

Join us Saturday evening at 6pm for a sit down dinner at Dick Clark's American Bandstand Grill! UPDATE:  Because of the lack of interest for the sit down dinner at Dick Clark Grill, we've dropped the "ready made" dinner that many of the bus tours enjoy. Because of the great food and easy access to the grill from Bldg 700, those who work there will most likely have our dinner at the Grill (I've already heard from many people who want to join us).  If you'd like to join us Saturday night, let us know when you register your truck (or drop me an email now) so we can get a head count.  Seating can be limited depending on the area we sit, so the sooner we know you'd like to join us, the better it will be for service at the grill.  The area directly to the left of the door as you walk in along with the small room off of it seats around 40 people.....so you can get the idea of what we are talking about.
