"What we're going to have is, on one day, each balloon will have a bean bag and there is going to be a big white ‘X' on the grounds. They (the balloons) are each going to launch and drop their bag as close to the ‘X' as pos-sible, and they will win points for that. So, you get on Saturday the spectacle of 25 balloons coming into the grounds. On Sunday, we'll have a big ascension."
