          | Our Hot Air Balloon Meets - everyone welcome! |  
          | Our club meets are not restricted to club members, everyone is welcome. 
 There isn't a charge to attend our meets either, with or without a balloon, there may be a small charge towards overnight stays in tents/caravans and motorhomes and this will be specified on the entry form. These need to be booked in advance please.
 
 The closing date for entries is usually the Friday/Saturday prior to the meet to allow us to finalise the details with the site. However, if you have left it too late and the deadline has passed by, don't worry, just get in touch and we will try to fit you in.
 
 For more information about our meets, please contact the club's meet organisers; Alex and Elaine Smith, via the email address; meets@prba.org.uk or telephone 07974 316123

              | Autumn Gold Meet | 19/09/2025
 - 21/09/2025 |  
              | Fishburn Airfield, co. Durham |  
                | Members and friends of the PRBA have been invited to a weekend of fun at Fishburn Airfield in County Durham. 
 
 Pilots, get your competition hats on and compete for the Autumn Gold Trophy. The task is set by whoever won the trophy the previous year.
 
 We also have the 'Gassing' trophy in memory of Terry Chamberlain for you all to compete as a minimum distance task.
 
 There aren't many balloon meets in this area and balloons are welcomed by the locals. So please come along and take advantage of a bargain weekend.
 
 Also on site is a 'welly throwing' contest, a leftover from the Henge Hoppers meet, for the greatest distance thrown - prizes for the best junior and senior.
