The Mayor's Cup Invitational Hot Air Balloon Race has been canceled for 2009 after discussions with the event's major sponsors and examination of projected operating expenses.
Roscoe's Root Beer and Ribs, Re/Max of Rochester, Higgins Custom Cabinetry and Spring Green Lawn Care, as well as event founder and organizer George Ibach of Ibach Balloon Company in Minneapolis, came to the agreement this week.
The future of the event in 2010 and beyond will be evaluated soon.
The Mayor's Cup has been part of Rochesterfest for 23 years. It has traditionally been held during the last weekend of the celebration.
