Barren holds first hot air balloon festival

By Tiffany Kessler

The first Groove and Glow hot air balloon festival was held Saturday night, September 21, 2019, at the Glasgow Municipal Airport. Sponsored and supported by T.J. Sampson Hospital, Glasgow City Police Department, Glasgow Chamber of Commerce, and several other entities, the event had a larger turnout than anyone was expecting.

Those attending were treated to free tethered hot air balloon rides, bouncy houses, rock walls to climb, vintage aircraft, live music, and lots of freebies from local businesses. A multitude of food trucks were ready to feed the masses. At only 35 miles from Adair County, it made for a great day trip.
