Events & News From Chamber Members

(This is a service to Chamber members; see information at the bottom of this page.)

The Playce Shell Knob Commercial Group - Owners of The Playce, proudly announce they are under new and local management.

     In order to re-establish the quality service and attention to detail our cherished residents deserve, we have terminated the Shook/Jones management team.  We are committed heart and soul to providing the finest in care-free independent living.

     Our first step is to welcome local native Kerry Smith to manage and oversee The Playce.  She was instrumental in the early success The Playce experienced.  The Shell Knob Commercial Group is firmly committed to Shell Knob and the Ozark's area.  Please stop by or call The Playce today, and see for yourself the important changes that have been made and many services we proudly offer.  Take another look at The Playce.
