Here in lovely Montgomery County, Maryland public school starts on Monday, August 28. If I were still in school, I’m certain that I would be complaining about the unfairness of having to go back to school before Labor Day. Instead, I am grateful that the schools have already been calling to get their “Back to School” balloon decor booked for the first day of school. Please see www.BallroomBalloons.com/testimonials.html for a look at some of our valued Clients.
Yes, the balloon crew starts its work at 3:00am this year so we can create several arches and bouquets at area schools before the students arrive. Its an inspiring time, even for a balloonist. We hear the hope and expectation from the school staff and parents who call us this time of year. It almost seems that they feel the balloons offer a true sense of welcoming and perhaps even an omen of good luck for the coming school year. The beginning of the school year is a stressful time; but, it is also a time of anticipation and hope.
Even for those of us who are years out of school, the new school year feels more powerful than the calendar new year. The new school year summons thoughts of the changing season and with it, rain, wind, new scents, and fall colors. There is the melancholy of another summer finished. And, there is the thrill of starting over. So, what does all this have to do with balloons you might ask? Its a good question; but, I’m afraid I’ve given all the answer I can on the subject.

Enjoy,
Stan
