One of the Lake area's favorite events is happening this weekend - the 27th Annual Lake of the Ozarks Shootout!  You don't have to wait until the races to join in on the fun though.  There are all kinds of exciting events going on every day until the first boat takes off.  The best luxury waterfront homes at the Lake of the Ozarks has some of the important details for you in our blog today.      

The Lake of the Ozarks Shootout is expected to bring in over 75,000 race fans to the area.  It has been going on since 1988, and grows each and every year.  Many local charities and fire departments benefit from money raised from this annual event.  In the past six years alone it has raised over $437,00.  Here is a list of what is going on all week.
