Balloons released are biodegradable and will be filled with wild bird seed. “We’ve been
celebrating all year long with 150 events in 2021. The Sesquicentennial Committee

a fun way for kids to remember this historical year and tell their kids about celebrating
150 years of Calvert City,” said Blair Travis, director of marketing, communications, and
business development.
150 Calvert City Elementary students will be selected to release the balloons. Students
will gather in the parking lot of the school and release them at 9:30 AM. “We’re excited
