Q&A:
When will my Greely Grad get our order?
We will schedule a pickup day that aligns with marching practice so your Greely Grad can pick up their balloon(s).
How eco-friendly are the bouquets?
We found the most biodegradable balloons we could and are filling the balloons with air. We still recommend that you dispose of balloons safely to not harm our local wildlife :)
Isn't helium being used up at an alarming rate?
Balloon helium isn't as pure as science helium or welding helium. There is enough to go around right now and for the foreseeable future.
How do I deflate the balloons to get my deposit back?
Put a drinking straw in the valve until the gas starts to come out. Press gently and fold or roll.
The garden stakes and the helium balloons (carefully deflated) can be returned to Katie Dexter at GHS on Monday, June 10th between the hours of 10 am and 1 pm by the GCA.
Why can I only return the balloons and garden stakes at that one time?
The office staff is working very hard and we didn't want to put more responsibility on them.
