The American Baseball Coaches Association is pleased to announce its new partnership with Explore Branson. A featured exhibitor at the 2024 ABCA Convention, Explore Branson will also be giving ABCA members the chance to enter and win a vacation getaway to Branson, Missouri, later this year.
“We are excited to begin our partnership with Explore Branson,” said ABCA Executive Director Craig Keilitz. “Whether it’s a road trip to participate in one of their many youth baseball tournaments or taking part in their world-famous festivals and events, we hope our coaches take advantage of all the city of Branson has to offer.”
Branson is a one-of-a-kind family vacation destination — and an incredible value — nestled in the lakeside beauty of the Ozark Mountains with live performance theaters, three pristine lakes (Table Rock, Lake Taneycomo and Bull Shoals), an international award-winning theme park (Silver Dollar City), dozens of attractions and museums, a Historic Downtown district, a Town Center-style shopping complex (Branson Landing), a full range of dining options, and a host of hotels, motels, resorts, RV parks, campgrounds and meeting and conference facilities.
“We are proud to partner with the American Baseball Coaches Association. The timing couldn’t be any better with the investments in sports infrastructure, specifically ball diamonds, happening in the Branson/Lakes Area region,” said Jonas Arjes, Interim President/CEO,
Branson/Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce & CVB. “Teaching the game of baseball and the life lessons that go along with it are a great fit with the culture here in Ozark Mountain Country and the added benefit of welcoming new generations of visitors is as good as knocking one out of the park.”
