2021 Pahrump Balloon Festival: Temporarily Postponed

 MEMBERS, BUSINESSES & FRIENDS:

2021 PAHRUMP BALLOON FESTIVAL IS POSTPONED 

In light of recent events and out of an abundance of caution, and consistent with the guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and in adherence to Governor Sisolak’s directives and mandated limitations for large gatherings due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Pahrump Valley Chamber of Commerce’s annual Balloon Festival is being postponed until spring, when the recently announced state reopening criteria will allow an event of this size. The chamber is working with the state, health officials and the county to assure the safety and well-being of our members and community. It is our top priority. While we are proud of everything we do at the Chamber, none of our events are worth risking your health or worth placing additional burdens on our healthcare providers or businesses. The event is not cancelled, it is postponed, until the state is accepting and approving plans for large scale events. We have not made this decision lightly and we hope everyone will understand and we can’t wait to get back to business as usual soon! We will share more information and the rescheduled date for the spring event very soon, so stay tuned! 

The next few months will be a unique and challenging time for us as a community. It will likely be particularly difficult for our small business owners and their employees, who rely on all of us to participate in local commerce. If you have opportunities to buy local, please strongly consider it. While there is likely to be some disruption in all of our lives over the coming months, if we come together, we can minimize the impact and help each other through a once in a lifetime challenge. Thank you to all our members and the community for your continued and unparalleled support. We value you and appreciate you.

Remember, we are all in this together and this too shall pass.

Thinking Positive,

Jenney Sartin

CEO.
