at Turf Valley Resort
May 15-17, 2008

On behalf of the Maryland Preakness Celebration, Inc. and Turf Vallet Resort, we want to thank all crew members for their high spirited energy that helped make our Thursday hot air balloon activities a big SUCCESS. If Friday's weather had only been like Thursday's!!!


Fantastic Crew Members in 2007
Dick Ruehl signs in members of Boy Scout Troup 944 of Ellicott City. The scouts did a super job as crew members in working with the balloons.





Our Crew members always seem to have a good time!
Especially following a great meal at Damons Grill in Hunt Valley.




With help from her crew, Kathy Remley(pilot) stands up her balloon and displays the Coldwell Banker basket banner at Baltimore Inner Harbor East on Friday evening in 2007.

Is this work or a really fun time?
