Anti-Violence Non-Profit SARC to Hold Second Annual “Rising Above It” Hot-Air ...

From SARC:

Hot-air balloons will be the focus of a two-day festival over Labor Day Weekend in Bel Air.

The 2nd Annual Rising Above It Balloon Festival is a fundraiser for SARC, a Harford County nonprofit that provides hope and resources to victims of domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse and stalking.

Family Fun Day takes place (rain or shine) at the Harford County Equestrian Center, 608 North Tollgate Road in Bel Air, on Saturday, September 3, from noon to 7 p.m. The Balloon Glow Gala takes place the evening before, Friday, September 2, from 7 to 11 p.m. at Maryland Golf and Country Clubs, 1335 East MacPhail Road in Bel Air.

Family Fun Day features a mix of activities for kids and adults alike.

Hot-air balloon pilots will provide interactive demonstrations. Kids can take horse rides (additional fee) and participate in Home Depot’s “kids workshop,” moon bounces, face painting, balloon twisting, a scavenger hunt and a pirate encampment. The Maryland Zoo’s ZOOmobile will also be on hand as will Harford County Public Library’s Rolling Reader.

Also joining the festivities is Baltimore AMP (Artist Musician Project), which invites festival guests to design a T-shirt or bag to take home (additional fee).

Youth can also participate in the Big Picture Project by decorating a square of a quilt that illustrates a happy and safe world. The squares will be sewn together to form a quilt that will be on display at next year’s balloon festival.

In addition, there will be a child- and youth-friendly tent filled with additional activities plus another that will focus on a mix of activities for youth and adults.

Radio personality Maynard Edwards of WAMD serves as the day’s master of ceremonies. His award-winning band, Collect All 5 (formerly Mobtown Saints) will perform two shows on the main stage.

There will also be a local musician stage featuring a variety of music by area artists.
