Willamette Aerostat Society Balloon Club
Welcome to the Willamette Aerostat Society Balloon Club! We are a Hot Air Balloon Club located in Oregon. We have members from across the country including Washington, Nevada, South Dakota and more. We publish a newsletter each month that covers a variety of topics, including upcoming ballooning events, reports on recent events and other topics of interest to the ballooning community.
All newsletters have been moved to the “Members Only” section of the website, which is currently NOT password protected.
