WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) â A new version of an old favorite returns to Central Wisconsin this weekend.
The inaugural Taste âN Glow Balloon Fest is set for this weekend, July 9th through the 11th at the Trailmates Snowmobile Club grass drag in the Town of Stettin. The event was put together by local hot air balloon enthusiasts after Wausau Events canceled its âBalloon and Rib Festâ for the second time in two years, citing the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Two of the driving forces behind the event have been Steve and Nancy Woller, who have been planning it since February of 2021. While the event will feature some old favorites from the previous version like balloon rides and a couple of rib vendors, Balloonmister Steve Woller says the event has a very different feel.
