Tim Strand

Tim has been flying since 1979, and is often among the pilots you see flying balloons in the evening sky over Hunterdon and Warren counties. Tim and his wife Clare, also a balloon pilot, live in Holland Township, NJ.

“I look forward to the fair, and I’m excited to be participating in the Balloon and Bicycle Race event again this year” notes Tim.

If you find yourself wanting to learn more about this exciting sport, feel free to ask Tim or most any of the other pilots or chase crew members during the fair. The best way to get involved in the sport of ballooning is to volunteer to be one of the chase crew members. Lots of balloon pilots got their start that way!

Tim has attended the Fair since the first year in 2001.
