High Hopes is a nonprofit volunteer organization that grants wishes to seriously ill children. They organize a balloon festival each year. For many years, it has been at Chappell's Grandview Farm in Milford. For 2006, it will be at the Anheuser-Busch brewery in Merrimack.
There is more than just the hot air balloons. There will be an air show, music, fireworks, food, crafts, and a car show. See the web site for information on reserving a balloon ride.
