The 2012 U.S. National Championship Application (pdf) is now available for download from the BFA site.  The Great Texas Balloon Race will be serving as host for the 2012 event and we look forward to an exciting event and Texas hospitality.  The event will run from July 23-29th in Longview, TX and all HACD members are encouraged to complete the invitation package and return it to the BFA office for processing.  The field will be limited to 50 entrants selected from the published eligibility list which was compiled according to Appendix E of the 2012 BFA Competition Rules, Regulations, Policies and Procedures.  Once the field has been filled the HACD will generate a waiting list and fill vacant spots according to the eligibility list.  Please remember that no application will be considered complete unless all required pieces of the application are submitted in full.  Applications are due back to the BFA office by April 16, 2012.
 
We hope to see you in Longview, TX in July!
 
Thanks,
 
Chase Donner
HACD Chairman
