Hi Everybody,

The Airport will be hosting a hot air balloon festival on July 25th and
26th.  We are planning on using the Marple taxiway area as the grand
entrance and staging area for vendors, food, the band and the beer/wine
area.  We will be closing the airport at 5pm on Friday evening, July
25th.  The Balloons will be setting up along the runway for the Friday
night "glow".   On Saturday morning beginning around 5am, the balloons
will be setting up to launch for a balloon race.  They should all be in
the air by 8:30 or 9:00 am at which time we will re-open the runway.
All the festivities will continue in the west end taxiway areas until
around 1:00pm when the awards are presented and everyone leaves.  We
plan on roping off the west end taxiways to contain the crowd and make
sure the airport operations are not impacted on Saturday afternoon.

We are very happy to host this festival which will be beneficial to the
Airport, Aviation Museum, and especially The City of Santa Paula.  We
hope you all will come out and enjoy the fun.  This should be a great time!

Rowena
