Registration is ongoing for the 7th annual Red Rock Balloonfest 5K/10K, which begins this Saturday morning at North Overlook Beach.
Race organizer Mike Buchheit tells KNIA/KRLS News the race raises funds for cross country programs at Pella, Knoxville, and Pella Christian, as well as the Eagles soccer team. Buchheit says the annual tradition features a team component as well, which allows groups to be scored against others, similar to a cross country meet.
The Balloonfest 5K/10K begins at 8 a.m. on Saturday, and click here to register.
