Balloons Over Vermilion, 2026 is now just two weeks away; with its earlier time and new location, Kennekuk County Park. BOV Board member Christian O’Shaughnessy recently joined Tommy B on D102’s The Big Show; about the plans for Friday, June 5th and Saturday, June 6th.
One item that came up was the new Up and Away 5K event, set for right through the heart of Kennekuk Park that Saturday morning. O’Shaughnessy reminded everyone, please try to sign up by Wednesday, June 3rd.
AUDIO: So you can still register for the 5K, up until the Wednesday prior to it. Then we’re going to shut it down, just so we can make sure things; that we have all of our ducks in a row. And then that Saturday, if still want to run the 5K, we encourage you to show up that morning, it opens up at 6:30. You can register, I’d say, up until about a half an hour, 15 minutes even, prior to the start of the race. So you can register up until the day of.
