The Branson Police Department is facing off against the Branson Fire-Rescue Department in one of the greatest games ever played, turkey bowling.
On Thursday, Dec. 17, at 5:30 p.m. Branson Police Chief Jeff Matthews and Branson Fire Chief Ted Martin will take to the ice at The Holidays on Ice new ice skating rink at the Branson Ferris Wheel to play a game of turkey bowling. For the game, each of the chiefs will roll frozen turkeys into bowling pins on the ice rink, according to a press release.
The fun-filled evening event will benefit the Salvation Army. Community members are encouraged to bring nonperishable food items or cash to fill the red kettle. For that generosity, The Holidays on Ice will give donors free skate rentals in addition to the local 10% discount for unlimited ice skating that evening, the release stated.
