Elizabeth Buttell-Landes sings "I'm Proud to be an American" and invites the crowd to join in the chorus.

C. Wayne Schrader led a verse of "God Bless America."

And finally, it is time for the balloons to take to the skies.

 

Strong winds quickly took the balloons away ...

 

... sending them to the northeast, across the four-lane, over the rooftops of The Christian Village and beyond.

 

 

Color fills the sky.
