Video Blog: Attended the 10th Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival in Cathedral City, CA





In this video blog, I share a recap of the 10th Annual Hot Air Balloon Festival I attended as a volunteer and spectator in Cathedral City, California. It was a great opportunity to work as a team alongside people from all over to complete tasks that would help the hot air balloons fly in the air for the community. There was live music, food trucks, and a hot air balloon glow, all brought to the community by the Agua Caliente Casinos.
