Who, What, When & Where: This Week’s 36th Annual Shootout

Lake of the Ozarks Shootout—August 2024 e-Newsletter

By Christy Wagner, Editor

The time is upon us, dear friends. The 36th Annual Lake of the Ozarks Shootout is here and we are ready. In typical Shootout fashion, we have back-to-back events scheduled over the course of the next seven days, wherein a loyal group of Shootout-appointed personnel and dedicated volunteers will have all hands on deck. As the assured bedlam and jollification will undoubtedly ensue, so will safety enforcement, creative marketing, endless fundraising, and organizational tasks in hopes of achieving yet another unforgettable and unbelievable year. We truly hope to see 2024 become the very best year yet for overall dollars raised and donated back to the Lake of the Ozarks.

So, that brings us to each individual event—because we want to see you there.
