The sinuously-shaped Branson Landing Hilton, site of the auction since fall of 2007, was devastated. Draperies waved like flags from its myriad broken windows.<\/p>\n

But the Convention Center survived, and the Spring Branson Auction, April 20-21, 2012 is on. Determination, resiliency and commitment in the face of adversity can overcome most things.<\/p>\n

There are few organizations better equipped with those attributes than the Cox family\u2019s Branson Auction and we\u2019ll be there to help them, and Branson, recover.<\/p>\n
