On January 18, 2021, Jason Outman began his tenure as the President/CEO of the Branson Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce/CVB.
On the two-year anniversary of his hire, Outman joined KRZK's Ozarks Now program just as he did when that show debut two years ago. Outman talked about the transition of Branson after the COVID-19 Pandemic and how there seems to be no end in sight to visitors wanting to enjoy all of the attractions, shows, outdoors, and other opportunities for vacation in the region.
Outman did talk about recent discussions with the City of Branson, who contracts with the chamber for marketing. Several of those meetings between the two became contentious and intense, though Outman says since those October meetings, both sides had several discussions to clear things up which included a six hour conversation with Branson Mayor Larry Milton. Outman says the new contract with Branson is in place and hope to have a renewed marketing contract with the Tourism Community Enhancement District ready by the time the current contract runs out in April.
