'Balloons Over 66' This Weekend in Lincoln

BBQ and balloons are the highlights of 'Balloons over 66' this weekend in Lincoln.

 

Mayor Tracy Welch says the highlights include balloon glow on Saturday night at four locations and then balloon launches on Friday night, Saturday morning, Saturday evening, and Sunday morning. Additionally, there will be a local BBQ competition on the square on Saturday with food vendors throughout downtown.

 

 

According to the Mayor, the fact the 'Balloons Over 66 has come back and become nearly the festival it was before the Chamber of Commerce in Lincoln went defunct is a testament to the community. He points out, they dedicated some of the ARPA, or American Rescue Plan Act funds, to go to the various groups putting on events this weekend.

 

 

There are some events happening tonight (Friday) in Lincoln. For more information on all things 'Balloons Over 66', visit destinationlogancountyil.com/events.
