The "Mount Hope Balloon Glow" Saturday Night
Please come watch the "Mount Hope Balloon Glow". Weather permitting, It will be held Saturday evening, September 7, 2019, from 7:30pm to 8:30pm. As the sun sets, the balloons will light the night, providing a beautiful show for everyone. |
Watching the Weather
***NOTE: Many times the weather looks fine standing on the ground, but a few feet up the winds can be causing havoc. The wind speed is the crucial factor; flights may be postponed or canceled on the field. This is frustrating for both the public and the pilots, but safety is always our priority. When waiting to see if there will be a flight, please visit with the vendors, and talk with the hot air balloon teams. |
