Study this picture. Does it remind you of anyone? Maybe...yourself or a friend or a relative? If so, take a picure and enter the Plumb Nellie Days Reuben Branson Look-Alike Contest. It's FREE to enter and there are prizes for the winner, including a haircut and shave! A panel of judges will select 5 finalists who will be judged on stage during Plumb Nellie Days at the Friday Night Dance on May 18, 2012.

Remember, it's only January – you have plenty of time to work on that moustache and beard. Stop shaving now!

Why Reuben Branson? Reuben S. Branson brought his surname to Taney County early in the 1880's when he opened a general store near Forsyth. His store became a post office in 1882 with its official address listed as Branson, Missouri. Branson then became county assessor. He died in 1935.
