On Thursday evening they have the Balloon Glow where all the balloons are lit up to the sounds of music
Balloon Photo Tips:
1. See which way the wind is blowing then position yourself so the balloons will fly toward you.
2. Look for colors, shapes and patterns
3. Use people as scale to show how large the Balloons are
4. Show the crew at work
5. And of course show them in the air!!!
The balloons launch from the Chagrin Falls High School field behind the school. See map below for directions from your location.
