Celebrate New Year’s with two days of fun in San Diego. Fighter kite competition takes place the afternoon of Dec. 31 at Mission Bay Park, just south of the Hilton. When it gets too dark at the park, we'll move on to a New Year’s Eve party and night flying (location TBD). Our 11th annual New Year’s Day Fly will feature the colors of Rod and Cindy Thrall. They'll display a huge, blue (Peter Lynn) teddy bear, Gomberg crowns, large airforms, and enough line laundry and banners to let everyone know they're here! Ron and Sandy Gibian also plan to attend so they can visit all of Ron’s kites that now make their home in San Diego with Al Stroh, who’s been fiddling with a video camera attached to an 18' gemstone. If the wind cooperates, we'll have some memorable video to view New Year’s Evening. The day will include a raffle, potluck lunch, and 1- 2- and multi-line flying for all who care to join in. You can also feel free to sit back in a beach chair and watch the spectacle. Either way, come enjoy the warm, southern California climate while the rest of the kiting world stays inside or freezes!
