Ribbon cutting for Balloons Over 66 Weekend
August 27, 2021 @ 5:30 PM CDT
The public is invited to the Comfort Inn in Lincoln on Friday evening at 5:30 p.m. for a ribbon cutting ceremony for Balloons Over 66.
Local event organizer Seth Goodman is excited about the event this year that will feature 32 hot air balloons. Weather permitting balloons will lift off on Friday evening, Saturday morning and evening, and there will be a first of its kind glow event Saturday night with all 32 balloons invited to attend. The glow will take place at the Lincoln Park District, 1400 Railer Way in Lincoln.
The ribbon cutting is to welcome the pilots to the community and show appreciation to them as well as Seth for making this event happen. Following the ribbon cutting, pick your favorite spot and go to the first lift off event of the weekend immediately afterward.
