OZARK, Mo. — More than 10,000 people are expected to make their way down to the City of Ozark tonight for the 17th Annual Hot Air Balloon Glow Event.
Proceeds will go toward the Children’s Smile Center, which provides dental care for low-income kids.
The balloon glow festival is part of the Sertoma Duck Race Festival. Jackie Barger with the Children’s Smile Center says this festival is a win-win for everyone participating.
“It’s because we know when they come here to the balloon glow, they’re also going to enjoy a lot of things about the Sertoma Duck Festival. And helping make that festival more successful also helps the Children’s Smile Center. We are one of the benefitting charities of the Duck Race Festival,“ said Barger.
Things kick off tonight at 5 p.m. Folks can enjoy food trucks, arts and crafts, and there will be a kid zone too.
