The students at Joseph Warren Elementary School, 9239 S. Jeffrey Blvd., in Chicago real estate neighborhood Calumet Heights will get an exciting introduction to hot air ballooning when the RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon and its crew visit the school on Dec. 19. The visit is part of an on-going interactive educational program developed by RE/MAX, the Chicago real estate leader.
The 370 students at the school will learn about various aspects of ballooning, including its history, the scientific principles involved and a demonstration on how the balloon functions. The program will begin at 9:30 a.m. outdoors where, if weather conditions permit, the 75-foot-tall balloon will be fully inflated with hot air. Otherwise, the event will be moved indoors, with two presentations, one 9:30 a.m. and one at 10:30 a.m., each of which will accommodate half of the student body. During indoor sessions, the balloon envelope is partially inflated with cold air so that students can walk inside it for part of the educational presentation.
RE/MAX Northern Illinois is sponsoring the event.
