Balloon Fiesta

Have reservations for Fiesta this fall. Thinking about volunteering for a crew. Does any one know what is involved. Will be there 10 days . Should you work every day or not. Thanks

I'll be interested in hearing what others say too. We will be there for 3 days and we have signed up for the morning of the second day we are there.

We crewed for our 10-day stay but it's certainly not work. It a joy to be around the balloons and learning the ins and outs. It's not like you're there all day. They ascend early morning and then the chase crew picks them up. It's an awesome experience.

Due to Hurricane Irma, we had to head home to do cleanup/repairs. As a result, we will not be attending the Balloon Fiesta this year and have a reserved premium site ( water and electric) available for Oct 9 to the 12th. If anyone is interested in getting the site, please contact me ASAP.
