Congratulations to Don Scott on completing his Faith Over Fear goal: riding a hot air balloon!
This is Don’s story:
A hot air balloon ride was something I always wanted to do but never got around to it. But last year a friend won tickets in a radio contest and asked if I’d like to tag along. I didn’t have to think twice. After a few disappointing cancellations due to weather, we finally took off on the morning of June 3, 2024 – up, up and away in our beautiful balloon – it was fabulous.
Thank you to Sundance Balloons for the opportunity!
