Housing Operations assistant director Brian Gano prepares for lift off Saturday afternoon in his hot air balloon, Dreamweaver. Gano is currently seeking certification to pilot hot air balloons and was joined in flight by his wife, Lisa, who already has her pilot's license.
The Ganos own and operate Sky Dancer Balloon Rides out of Bay City, which offers hot air balloon adventures in the Tri-Cities area.
In addition to offering rides, the opportunity also exists to serve on the ground crew, which helps set up the balloon. No experience is necessary.
The Ganos were joined in flight by student Amy Zurakowski and assisted by Kali Bayse and Marcus Bennett.
