Do you live within a 5 mile radius of Frankenmuth? If so and you would like to allow a Hot Air Balloon to land or launch from your property, please place a white sheet on the spot starting Friday early morning until Monday afternoon. Make sure your sheet can be seen from the air and when a Balloon Pilot sees it he knows you have given him permission to land. Thank You for welcoming the Hot Air Balloons to our community!
