RIDE THE RE/MAX
HOT AIR BALLOON  AGAIN
AT CAMPBELL CITY FEST

To Benefit Roosevelt Park 

This year brings us The 10th Annual Campbell City Fest. The fun starts on Friday, June 20, 2003 at 3:PM and will conclude on Sunday June 22, 2003 with the RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon and spectacular fireworks display. Sponsored by RE/MAX Valley Real Estate, the World Famous RE/MAX hot air balloon will be giving exciting tethered rides Sunday from 5:pm – 9:pm. (weather permitting). A donation of  $5.00 to benefit Roosevelt Park will be appreciated.  

“We applaud all the efforts and labors of those working so hard in making this event such a success. It’s so nice to see a community pull together to insure that the children have a safe and state-of-the-art park to play in.” according to John W. Pearce, Broker for RE/MAX Valley Real Estate.

Last year RE/MAX Valley Real Estate and the World Famous RE/MAX hot air balloon was such a success that

“… its better to get to the balloon early to guarantee a fabulous ride.”

 Monies raised in the past at the Campbell City Fest have been used to make needed improvements within the park and last year new playground equipment was purchased.  

In 1936, the Hazelton Slovak City Improvement Club urged city council to purchase the Gluck Farm for recreational purposes. The land was purchased in 1937 under Mayor John Borak and his council. The park currently has 3 baseball diamonds (Little League, Babe Ruth League, and regulation size). It also has a girl’s softball field, a soccer field and several tennis courts. Many pavilions and a community center adorn Roosevelt Park, in which families and organizations can rent to have picnics and other activities. 

The sight of the RE/MAX Balloon “Above the Crowd” is thrilling and can be seen from miles away. It’s even more exciting to realize how the balloon draws attention to the services RE/MAX Valley Real Estate offers the homebuyers and sellers in the Mahoning Valley.
