Jewsbury and Smithers appeared on KRZK's The Upside with Josh (Clark) and Them on Wednesday to discuss the event.

He highlighted the Brett family who has produced this event for years. He also mentioned many people who will attend.
The BVA 913 color guard and the honor guard, the assistant police chief, the Branson Fire Department and many more people are expected. "The Hughes brothers will be there to sing a couple of tunes," he said. Mina Thomas Brett will sing the National Anthem. Yakov Smirnoff will deliver remarks, and later, a bell ringing ceremony will play.
