Erie’s Hot Air Balloon Launch planned for this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (June 9th, 10th and 11th) has been postponed due to an unseasonable amount of rain.
The Pilots determined this morning that the fields are too wet for launching and landing, and will not dry out enough by this weekend.

Stay tuned for our rescheduled date.
