Saturday from 8 to 10am
at the launch site. Downtown Vernal will provide breathtaking views
on Friday night
during the night sky glow where the balloons are inflated and illuminated like large light bulbs. Another exciting event during Dinah ‘SOAR’ Days will be a book signing featuring Vern and Al at the Utah Field House dinosaur museum
