EVENTS
Plans are progressing well for Inflation Day on 23 April.
Entry is now OPEN and you can find the registration form HERE.
Fingers crossed the storms will have subsided and we enjoy calm winds.
Make a note in your diary... 2nd to 4th June 2022.
Details on the website HERE.
A team of enthusiastic members will inflate a selection of balloons from the collection so put in a request for good weather.
We are delighted that David Hopkins has kept to his promise that the event can be held on his land at the top of Fen Road, Pidley (NOT at Lakeside Golf Complex as in previous years). Early days in the planning but further details will be forthcoming in due course but I am expecting the format to follow a similar pattern to previous events!
We are planning to continue with the original idea of celebrating 40 years of the BBM&L (2 years late - where has that time gone!) and this will be one of the planned themes i.e. 40 year old balloons! Not that this will stop balloons of any age attending - all will be welcome as ever!
We hope you will put the date in your diaries and we look forward to making it a fantastic event and lets put Covid behind us and have a 'normal' ballooning event again!
