Chicago Real Estate Expert To Bring RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon To Bristol Grade School On May 29

Chicago real estate expert Mary Ann Schaper will delight the students at Bristol Grade School located at 23 Hunt St., Bristol, Ill., when she and the RE/MAX balloon team bring the RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon to the school on May 29 to present a special interactive educational program. Schaper is a sales associate at RE/MAX Great American II in Yorkville, Illinois. The visit is part of an on-going balloon education program developed by RE/MAX Northern Illinois, the Chicago real estate leaders.

The 330 students at the school will see a presentation that covers various aspects of ballooning, including its history, the scientific principles involved and a demonstration on how the balloon functions. The program will be presented at 1 p.m. The presentation will begin in the school gymnasium, and if conditions permit, the 75-foot tall balloon will be fully inflated with hot air outdoors on the school grounds.
