The Society of Ozarkian Hillcrofters holds second annual Ozarks Book and Collectibles Bazaar

   What a way to spend a cool, rainy, dreary day: browsing books and gifts, meeting new people and listening to some great music. The Society of Ozarkian Hillcrofters held their second annual Ozarks Book and Collectibles Bazaar at the Healing River Worship Center Gymnasium on Nov. 9, and despite the dreary weather, over 100 people attended. Next year, you will want to plan to attend this wonderful event. These people want to preserve the history and ways of the Ozarks, and we need to support them.

   



There were several vendors, and then we had wonderful music by Emalee Flatness-Combs and Esther Exley; what a great day! Lots of meeting, talking, reminiscing and laughter was had by all in attendance.


To support these wonderful people, I have some info about them below. These pages can be found on Facebook, The Society of Ozarkian Hillcrofters, “Mildred Quit Hollering and Other Ozark Folktales.”


All the authors, vendors and musicians have their own Facebook pages for you to personally message them.


Authors’ books can be found on Amazon; other online bookstores; Branson Centennial Museum, Branson, MO; Turners Mercantile, Turners, MO; Taney Co. Historical Society, Forsyth, MO; or from the authors themselves.
