Reno High Sierra 99s

Events

We have regularly schedule events - Monthly Chapter Business Meetings and a frequent Social Dinners at various local restaurants. Chapter business meetings are the 2nd Thursday of the Month, at 6 pm at Atlantic Aviation, Reno and also via Zoom.

Welcome to our Events Page

In addition to having our Chapter events posted here, we’ll try to keep this page updated with local or regional aviation events. The best way to identify what type of activity you’re looking at is to check out the logo. Chapter Business Meetings will have the RHS logo, Southwest Section events will use the SWS logo. Social events will use the colorful people with puzzle pieces logo, fundraising events will have the $ sign, and flying events will feature a cartoon woman flying a plane. All other evens will use the event logo. If you have an event you would like us to add, please let us know!

The Great Reno Balloon Race


  • Rancho San Rafael Regional Park 1595 North Sierra Street Reno, NV, 89503 United States (map)

Our fellow 99 and Balloon Pilot, Karalynn will be flying at The Great Reno Balloon Race! Come show your support for Ballooning! Remember, they were the first to take to the skies in flight!! If you’ve never crewed for a Balloon Pilot, seen a glow, or taken a flight in a Balloon, you’re missing out!!

Per Karalynn:

I will be at GRBR. Balloons fly September 5, 6, 7 & 8. Thursday is media day, so just a flight. Glows are Friday, Sat and Sunday this year. I'll be glowing then flying those days. Glows are at 5 (I'll be setting up about 4:15), flights are 7 (again, setting up about 45 minutes before). Anyone can stop by and say hi. If anyone wants to crew (help set up, inflate and retrieve the balloon), they can email me at karalynmumm@yahoo.com
