Cowlishaw School of Naperville Will Welcome RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon and Crew June 3 for Educational Program

The RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon pays a visit to Cowlishaw Elementary in Naperville on June 3 for an interactive educational program.

CHICAGO, May 27, 2015 – The RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon pays a visit to Cowlishaw Elementary School, 1212 Sanctuary Lane, Naperville, Ill., on June 3. That is when the balloon crew will offer an interactive educational program developed by the RE/MAX real estate network in northern Illinois.

The more than 600 students at Cowlishaw School will gather on the school grounds at 9:30 a.m. to learn about various aspects of ballooning, including its history and the scientific principles involved. They will see a demonstration on how the balloon functions. The 75-foot-tall balloon envelope will be fully inflated, weather permitting. The program can be moved indoors if conditions require it.

Also on hand will be the RE/MAX Soaring Home Balloon, a special-shape inflatable complete with house, children and pets that has become a crowd favorite.
