Marty Haggard: A Tribute to Merle Haggard, “My Dad’ definitely blends with the other shows at the Clay Cooper Theatre because it is based on God, Family, and Country. Marty is proud of his dad, Merle Haggard, and the accomplishments he has achieved as an entertainer and now plans to perform a tribute to his dad in this two hour performance. Marty understands the powerful songwriting of his father and does an amazing job capturing the lyrics and interpreting his dad’s heartfelt songs.

Of course, while thankful for the music that runs in his family, he has many accomplishments of his own having appeared on Nashville Now, The Grand Ole Opry, The Academy of Country Music Awards, The Today Show, and Music City Tonight, just to name a few. Marty came to Branson in 2010 hoping to stop travelling so much and finish raising his family. Marty will be joined on stage by his lovely wife, Tessa, singing backup vocals and a live band made up of seven incredible musicians.

On Saturday, April 30th Seishin Ryu Karate students from the Branson Sports Club participated in a National karate tournament in Cedar Falls, Iowa. The Seishin Ryu Martial Arts Association (S.R.M.A.A.) offers a National tournament each year that brings in students and branch schools from across the U.S. and Canada. Cole Crabtree, 9th kyu white belt, participated in the Youth White Belt division for Kata and earned the first place championship trophy for junior white belts. Kennedy Mattox, 9th kyu white belt, participated in the Adult White Belt division for Kata and earned the first place championship trophy for adult white belts. They each had some very tough competition in their divisions. They persevered and performed their techniques perfectly. We congratulate them on their accomplishment!

Their instructor, Sempai Vashon Borich, 2nd dan black belt, competed in the men’s and women’s black belt divisions. In the first two events, empty hand kata and weapons kata, she placed 3rd and received bronze medals for each. For sparring she placed 2nd and received the silver medal. By medaling in all three events her overall point standings earned her the 2011 S.R.M.A.A. Grand Championship trophy for male and female black belts.

The Branson branch of Seishin Ryu Karate, taught by Sempai Vashon Borich, has been active at the Branson Sports Club since August 2010. Seishin Ryu Karate is a traditional Japanese-style martial art founded in 1970 by Soshu Lee Dawson, 9th Dan. New students are always welcome.
