Information Extravaganza on the Balloons of Hope Festival June 18th - 19th, 2010



Hello everyone! I'm posting as much information as I have available at this time regarding the 8th Annual Sentimental Journey to the Southwest Proving Grounds organization sponsored "Senator Lloyd Spencer Memorial Balloon Race", 5th Annual "Fishing Derby", 4th Annual Riding Lawnmower Races and associated festival, also known generally as, "Balloons of Hope". You should be able to easily find information on the two days of scheduled events, their times, locations and a list of the points of contact for the various events in the posts and flyers below (to include some of the information translated into Spanish). All events will occur at Hope's Fair Park. I've included some maps to help you find your way to Fair Park and the Fair Park Facilities and events layout.

Come on out and enjoy this year's events with us!!!

Dave Phillips, Sentimental Journey Communications Director and/or general PR Guy.
