17 Colorful Balloons came to strut their stuff in Alpine over this year’s Labor Day Weekend. Crowds were entertained by the overwhelming spectacle of it all. All flights were perfect with crews, pilots, and sponsors seeming to have enjoyed the event — this our 10th Year. Saturday evening the sponsors, crews, and pilots were invited to a brisket and bean Bar-B-Que at the Woodard Ranch south of Alpine. Auctioneer Tim Parsons did the honors of calling the auction that raised money for next year’s event.
