Announcing a new Meetup for Unexpected Treasures!

When: Saturday, October 16, 2010 7:00 AM
Where: Long Brach Balloon/Wine Festival
830 Long Branch Ln
White Post, VA 22663
Hot-air balloon festivals are fun to watch and fun to shoot. The balloons are so big, bright, and beautiful. Want to leave you camera at home? The festival is still loads of fun. Come enjoy the music, the food, the wine, the scenery, and best of all photography group friends
A fun-filled, action packed, three-day family celebration unfolds with the 14th anniversary of the Shenandoah Valley Hot Air Balloon, Wine & Music Festival on October 15-17, 2010. Held on the spacious lawns and rolling fields of Long Branch in Clarke County, VA, the Festival brings balloonists and their colorful airborne craft from far and wide to delight spectators of all ages. In addition to the balloons, the annual event provides a wide variety of entertainment over the weekend.
Hot Air Balloon Launches, some with unique whimsical shapes, take to the skies at
approximately sunrise (7:30 am) and again at approximately sunset (4:30 pm) – weather permitting.
Staging begins approximately one half hour prior to flights. There will also be tethered hot air balloons on-site for spectators to enjoy the interior of the balloons and the opportunity to experience a tethered ride – weather permitting.
Admission to the event is $15 per person. Additional admission fees for wine, beer, and Historic House Tour. Admission is free for children 12 years old and younger.
PLEASE NOTE: BALLOONS WILL ONLY LAUNCH IF WIND AND WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE.
