Ronald McDonald House Michiana - Big Balloon Build

We do a little something different in this episode! Normally I conduct interviews that help tell a story from our area’s past or highlight a historical or well known spot in our area.

In this episode, we shine a light on a huge four day event… a one of a kind event that has only happened 4 other times in North America, an event that hopes to draw thousands of families to the Northern Indiana.  The event is called The Big Balloon Build and it’s to benefit one of our community's most impactful organizations, The Ronald McDonald House of Michiana. 

In this episode, you’ll learn ALL about The Big Balloon Build event that is coming to the Northern Indiana Event Center in Elkhart on April 25 - 28.  You’ll hear from three different people, each who passionately articulate how great this event will be!

You’ll hear from Jen Nyikos, owner of Fun By the Yard event decorating company, Nancy Salwin - Director of Sponsorships & Events at Ronald McDonald House Michiana, and Kiersten Eifler - Chief Executive Officer (CEO) - Ronald McDonald House Michiana.
