"We attended the 3rd annual SOAR NWA hot air balloon event! It was alot of fun for my family! I have a 5yr old daughter and a 14yr old daughter! There were 6 or more bounce houses for the little kids and an axe throwing trailer set up for older kids/adults. Lots of fun and lots of variety of food trucks. Beautiful hot air balloons. We can't wait to attend next year!"
