Tethered Rides To Be Announced
Hot air balloons will be giving tethered balloon rides in the evening as weather permits. Ever wonder what it's like to go up but too scared to actually go? Give a tethered balloon ride a try. ($10 per person).

 

Balloon Races:

Wednesday, July 31 – Bicycle Balloon Race - check back for details

Friday, August 2 and Saturday August 3 – Snapple Hare & Hound Race
The first balloon off the field is the hare balloon. This balloon lands and puts out a giant “X”. The other pilots try to follow in its tracks. Each pilot has a bean bag they will throw if they come close to the “X”. The pilot that throws closest to the center of the “X” wins.
