Tony St. John has been a man of many hats in the Moffat County community for over 30 years now. St. John is a Moffat County bus driver, a sponsorship representative for the local balloon festival, an ardent supporter of local athletics and a one-time political candidate. He also worked for the Holiday Inn, he was an AAU basketball coach, and he worked at the ColoWyo coal mine.

St. John’s journey to Craig was first brought about by his brother in law now a fellow bus driver living here working at the ColoWyo coal mine. St. John says that he was visiting his brother in law and was immediately smitten with the beauty of the landscape.
The Havasu Balloon Festival and Fair was canceled because of covid-19, but balloons will still take flight next month. A scaled back version of the 10-year-old event is still being planned for January.
A balloon night glow will be held along with a 5K run, a golf tournament and a movie drive-in taking place throughout the weekend of Jan. 15 to 17. This year’s event, which was officially canceled on July 24, would’ve been the 11th annual festival.
“Our attendance is 15 to 16,000 people, so historically it’s been a pretty sizable event,” Havasu Balloon Festival and Fair Board President Jim Day said. “That’s part of why we can’t really do it because it’s too many people and too many crowds. So we’re just scaling it back and trying to do something and help out the non-profits.”
