Kite Festival Postponed

Post by **Matthew** » Fri Apr 01, 2005 10:35 pm

The Kite Festival has been postponed until Sunday. Anyone who can still help out on Sunday, please contact me at mcgraham20@yahoo.com.

It's looking kinda blown out for Sunday right now. Might be doable late on Sunday at Woodstock.

I'm still in Matthew, regardless of the chances of a late-day
WS flight on Sunday. Will bring chairs, kites, wind spinners,
some promo stuff I found at home, glider, bike, the whole
nine yards!

We have a wind advisory for DC of NW 25-30 with gusts to 50 till 8:00pm Sunday evening. There's no way we can secure a glider down in these conditions, especially now that the ground is saturated and the screws won't hold. It would be just plain insane and dangerous to try. With more rain coming through in the AM, I'm pulling the plug on the Kite Fest. I don't want to have anyone sitting around in wind gusts up to 50mph at flimsy card tables trying to hand out leaflets that we'll be blown away.
