Hot Air Balloon

Posted on 11 March 2012 by T.J.

From 2010 …..

I got up early this morning and went to the Balloon Classic Invitational in North Canton at the Kent State Stark Campus. This was a combination of a Balloon Launching Site and Target Site. First they launched approximately 18 Hot Air Balloons. After the launch the field became the target site for at least 50 balloons, I lost count. The pilots in the ballons tried to drop bean bags on the field as close to a “X” as possible. This was quite a site to see this many balloons approaching one location.

Additional photos are hi-res photos in the Balloon Classic Invitational (North Canton, Ohio) (2010-08-01) album on my PicasaWeb Photo Album.
