Small Business Saturday – Holiday Passport Stroll: Mayor David Ridgely has proclaimed Saturday, November 29th, 2025 as Small Business Saturday in Lake Ozark. Part of a nationwide initiative to encourage people to shop and support locally owned businesses in their own community, the Bagnell Dam Strip Association is hosting their Light Up The Strip event for a festive day of shopping, strolling, dining and holiday cheer! New this year is the Holiday Passport Stroll, where area businesses are stamping event passports so that folks who visit several businesses may be entered to win a prize package. More information is available at https://www.facebook.com/events/727460423705599/?acontext=%7B%22event_action_history%22%3A[]%7D While participating in the event this weekend and throughout the holiday season, we hope you enjoy new decorations being placed throughout the City and take a picture at our photo stop near the top of the Strip!
A person who attended the July 27 City of Lake Ozark Board of Aldermen meeting has tested positive for COVID-19. They informed city staff Friday, July 30, out of concern for the public safety.
We encourage anyone who is concerned to watch for symptoms and be tested if they feel the need.
As always, follow your local county health department recommendations along with state Department of Health and Human Services recommendations for protocols and vaccinations.
