Lots of fun—and it always is. It was a treat to work with Jim again. And I had worked with Pete one other time—nice man. This was my 5th year, too, and I’m not ready to quit. My friend Sarah had a good time, too. Sally C. |

Hi I was born and raised in Needles and have lived in Mohave Valley, Arizona since 1997 and have attended this event all 5 years, even the one with the wind blowing at what seemed like 100 miles an hour while in the VIP tent but it held! We also travel about every 5th year to Albuquerque, NM for their event, love balloon watching! Just wanted whomever to know the traffic control and parking situation was awesome this year. We even found a hotel room at 10:00pm Friday night at the Travelodge rather than drive home and back for yesterday morning. We have went from the years of waiting for the bus for hours out in the dark in a dirt area to braving the morning and evening cold to ride our harley just to get a parking spot, nice little parking secret, to one year line so long for the night glow we missed it so we just turned around and came back to MHV that evening. Everything was awesome this year and I just wanted whomever to know as a Needles native and now an Arizona resident I greatly appreciate your time and effort in holding such an awesome event! Note to myself purchase my VIP tickets earlier as they were all sold out when I went to purchase appx 45 days before this years event compared to purchasing them the 2nd and 3rd year just a few days before the event…but that is a good thing! Will be looking forward to next year, Debbie H 🙂 | Thank you for having me at for the media day this year. Here are a few photos from today. Really appreciate the opportunity to be here!
