A message from Patty and Ken Cramer, Coshocton Balloon Festival:
On June 9, the Coshocton Hot Air Balloon Festival will be conducting a Night Glow in memory of Soc Rettos. We are inviting anyone that would like to participate in the glow to honor Soc's memory. The glow will start at 9:15 and will only last 30 minutes tops. The committee will provide propane (come full/leave full) and pizza. We will not have an official registration of pilots, but please be sure to bring all of your documents with you as the FAA may be on the grounds. You will need to send proof of insurance that is up to date, but the festival does not have to be named. Soc began his ballooning journey at Coshocton as an observer and then later got his pilot's license and flew both for fun and as a commercial ride pilot. His father, John, is still very active with the organizing of the festival. Many of his family members will be present that evening. It is about an hour trip from Canton, 1 1/2 from Akron. If you plan to attend or have questions about the glow, please send an email to coshoctonhotairballoonfestival@gmail.com or call Patty Cramer at 740-502-0677. We need a head count so that we have sufficient pizza that evening and to plan for the propane. Ken & Patty Cramer |
