Last year, organizers of the 1st Annual Music and Balloon Fest weren't sure how thi9ngs would go or if there would be a second such event.  Well, of course we know now that it was a great day in 2012, and there will indeed be a second annual festival, and this year's event is shaping up to be way bigger and better.

One improvement is the amount of activities for the kids. The Ross Park Zoomobile will be there, inflatable rides, and the kids will love the Gametime Express. That's a video gaming limo-style theater with 7 huge Hi-def TV's and all the latest games, a literal multi-player gaming heaven.

We can't forget the music, with local favorites Cassidy Lynn, Kaitlyn Jackson, and The Beadle Brothers. Of course when Matt and Bruce finish their show, the enormous fireworks display will begin.

Don't forget the Monster Truck shows at 1 and 7 PM featuring a motorcycle thrill show. All the fun begins with a karaoke contest at 10 AM. We'll see you at the Chenango County Fairgrounds on the fourth!
