wind for kiteflying! Here are three kiteflying activities
in which we participate. Do join us for more LK fun.
1. Fun
Fly at Rockaway Beach, Oregon, May 17-18, 2008. Sponsored
by the Rockaway Beach Chamber of Commerce, we are joining
Associated Oregon Kiteflyers for their arts and crafts festival.
Wed love to put some color on the beach for them and
make this into an annual event.
