On Friday afternoon the Balloons Over 66 Weekend officially began with the ribbon cutting ceremony held downtown at 1 p.m.

Those behind the ribbon included many of the committee leaders who were responsible, along with a large number of helpers and volunteers, for the successful implementation of the sixth annual Balloons Over 66 Weekend.

Friday evening was the first official flight of the Balloons Over 66 weekend. Thirty-three balloons launched from Open Arms Church in the hare & Hound Race.

The second event of the weekend was held at 6 a.m. on Saturday morning, and the third and final ballooning events will be a combination launch and glow this evening at Open Arms. Balloons will launch around 6:30 p.m. and then return for the glow at approximately 8 p.m.

There is ample parking at Open Arms, but bring lawn chairs and blankets so you can get closer to the action.
