Balloon festival ground by lack of funds -- chicagotribune.com

Balloon festival ground by lack of funds -- chicagotribune.com: "GALESBURG, Ill. - Galesburg's annual hot air balloon festival won't be getting off the ground this year because of money woes.

The organizer of the Great Balloon Race is Greg Saul, who says the event has lost $8,500 in sponsorship over the past two years. That is essentially half its budget."
