As the new Branson Public Safety Building at Gretna and Wildwood Road is nearing completion, a fundraiser is being organized for the future Tribute Park that will be on that site.

Branson Police Chief Eric Schmitt said during an interview on KRZK's "Ozarks Now" program that the new facility which at the location of the former White House Theater in almost finished with an anticipated Ribbon Cutting sometime in mid-November or early December. When completed, the building will house the Police Department Operations plus Administrative Offices for the Branson Fire Department. 

One of the future proposals for the site is Tribute Park, which will be a place honoring First Responders and Military Veterans. While the concept for the Park is in the early stages, a fundraiser for the park is coming up on October 4 in conjunction with the Hooked Songwriting Competition and Concert at the Pepsi Legends Theater. Representing the event, Andrea Brett and Bob Sarver discussed the concert and events surrounding it and that the $15 admission tickets will go to fund the future Tribute Park.
