Efforts are underway to represent and promote our wonderful sport of Hot Air Ballooning at the EAA Airventure at the end of July. The BFA will cover the costs of the Ballooning Display area, but we need your help! One of the greatest parts of ballooning is its people and our passion for lighter than air aviation. We are looking for volunteers to continue the tradition in Oshkosh, that are willing to share their enthusiasm at the BFA Ballooning Display Area. We are in need of a booth coordinator, booth staff as well as pilots who would like to tether and/or fly at the event. This years dates are July 29th - August 4th.
Let me know if you are interested in volunteering at one of the greatest Aviation Expositions to promote the great sport of ballooning. Please send an email to kwalter@bfa.net for more information

The Balloon Federation of America joins the rest of the worldwide ballooning community in mourning the loss of Cindy Petrehn.
Cindy was a beloved member of one of ballooning's largest and most well known families yet the World was Cindy's ballooning family. Through her talents as a photographer, she captured and shared the beauty and grace of our sport for all to see. With a constant smile, Cindy openly lived the passion she held so deeply for ballooning. She was a Staff Photographer for our BALLOONING Journal and gave of her work freely so others could enjoy it.
Now Cindy is aloft forever in a clear sky with light winds. She will be forever missed.
