LIVE ON THE INTERNET ON THIS WEB SITE!! Fireworks Kite Festival July 3, 2009..BOOM BOOM.. KSWI in Conjunction with Gift of Wings, US Bank and Your Milwaukee County Parks, www.CountyParks.com, will sponsor our annual Fireworks Kite Festival. Featuring the Giant Kites of Yves LaForest. This is a fun fly and all are welcome to participate. Our goal is to fill the sky with as many kites as possible. Times from 11:00 am until 6:30 PM, then 7:30 PM until the fireworks start at 9:25 pm. We have set aside a huge area of Veterans Park just for kitefliers. So fly a kite and get the best seats in the house for the greatest fireworks show on Earth. Well...in my opinion, of course. Now understand that traffic and parking are a real mess for this event, so come early and don't plan on leaving until after the fireworks are finished at 10:15pm. In other words, plan your whole day in the park. It's a blast.

Get it....It's a Blast! Come really early and stay really late. All KSWI Kite Flyers get to fly INSIDE the fence and watch the fireworks from the best seats in the House.
