Due to the excessive heat on Thursday, the annual media night was moved to Friday morning at the Balloons Over 66 weekend.

As the sun came up the balloons rose to greet it, making for a magical photo opportunity. In today’s edition, every story and photo is all about that early morning event that took the breath away and stunned the eye with its tremendous beauty.

Friday afternoon, the planning committee for this year’s Balloons Over 66 Weekend gathered downtown for a quick ribbon cutting ceremony. Committee members took only a few moments from their busy day making sure all was ready for the guests who would come throughout the weekend.

Joining the committee was Mayor Tracy Welch, members of City Council, and the new Miss Logan County Fair and Junior Miss Logan County.

LDN will have more from the ribbon cutting and all the other wonderful events of the weekend starting in the Monday edition.
