Facts and other information about the OEAF
Kris Wilson, President and Founder,
formed OEAF after producing two environmental recordings, "PURE
OZARKS" & "CHILDREN· OF THE OZARKS SING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT".
"PURE OZARKS" is a compilation of 15 original songs written and
performed by Branson/Springfield based entertainers. "CHILDREN
OF THE OZARKS SING FOR THE ENVIRONMENT" is 10 children's songs
performed by children. OEAF has also put on "AWARENESS 94" concert
at the Five Star Theater in Branson, MO with The Ozark Mountain
Daredevils, Peter Rowen, Brewer b Shipley, The Gallier Brothers,
Titanic Blues Band, Alien Ross, Radio Flyer, Children of the Ozarks,
and 5 top environmental speakers from across the state of Missouri.
OEAF also did benefits for the Soil ~ Water Conservation Department
and the Children of the Ozarks performing troupe.
THE OZARK ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS FUND'S latest project is
"A GET WELL PLAY FOR MOTHER EARTH" with the children of the 0zarks.
This hour long live play with song and dance with Cousin Nature,
Vincent Van Yuk, and the Children of the Ozarks is performed for
elementary schools, nature centers and family programs. It's goal
is to educate children without them even knowing their being
educated through entertainment.
