ELGIN, Ill., May 12, 2011 -- The RE/MAX Hot Air Balloon will visit Eastland Elementary School, 200 S. School St., Lanark, Ill., on May 23, where the balloon crew will present an interactive educational program developed and sponsored by the RE/MAX Northern Illinois real estate network.
In the audience will be the 140 students at Eastland Elementary, who will learn about various aspects of ballooning, including its history and the scientific principles involved. They also will see a demonstration on how the balloon functions. The RE/MAX balloon and crew will present more than 100 educational programs to schools across northern Illinois this year.
The balloon visit was arranged by Sales Associate Michelle Paisley of RE/MAX Town Lake and Country in Freeport, Ill.
The program will be presented at 8:45 a.m. outdoors on the school grounds, weather permitting, but can be moved indoors if required. The balloon envelope will be inflated with hot air to its full 75-foot height if the program is held outdoors. If the program needs to be moved indoors, the envelope is inflated with cold air so that students can walk inside it as part of the presentation.
