Rumble in the Treetops

Saturday, July 10th, 2010

Lumberjack Cometition

For the 2010 season, Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede has added a new segment featuring two teams of lumberjacks, entitled “Rumble in the Treetops”.

The new addition to the long running Dixie Stampede Dinner Show is made up of four events:

  • Lumberjacks race to climb a 60′ log suspended from the ceiling
  • Two Man Crosscut – which team cuts through a log the fastest
  • Quickest Log Chop – lumberjack and his ax against another to chop through a log the quickest
  • Log Roll – Two lumberjacks balance on one log floating in a pool of water, and run in place, spinning the log. Who can keep their balance the longest?

In Dixie Stampede tradition the winner wins a “medal” for either the North or South, adding to the totals won by the competitive riders during the show. These races include wagon racing, barrel racing, pig racing and audience-participant horse races.

All of this, plus great songs and dance, and a fantastic meal including creamy vegetable soup, biscuit, cornish hen, pork loin, baked potato, and an apple fritter. Add in the unlimited drinks, and it’s no wonder Dixie Stampede is “ The Smokies Most Fun Place To Eat

If you’re planning a Winter getaway, Pigeon Forge provides variety and value. Although some attractions (Dollywood, Dixie Stampede, et cetera) are closed for the season, the area has much more to offer.

Pigeon Forge hotels also offer some of the best prices during the winter. From The Resort’s Coffee and Condo Special (includes an INDOOR water park!) to the serenity of a riverside balcony at Creekstone Inn, discounts and vacation packages create great savings opportunities.
