Description:
CLEVELAND KITE FESTIVAL
On September 11 and 12, there will be kites, a sky full of amazing aerial acts, and a park full of fun at Lakefront State Park (Lower Edgewater Beach) in Cleveland beginning at 11 a.m. and concluding at 5 p.m. both days. And it’s all FREE. No admission charge to bring the whole family!
The Ohio Society for the Elevation of Kites (OSEK for short) will hold its annual festival.
There will be a Midway with craft booths and kite shops, a corral of Flying Animal Kites, Sensational Aerial Acts in Center Field, games and contests that include the public’s participation, and a Learn To Fly Sport Kites field. Each day will end with the Warriors taking the field for a Rokkaku Kite Battle for Supremacy of the Sky.
A Mass Ascension of kites will take place at 12 noon. Everyone who has a kite is welcome to join in this event as the National Anthem opens the events of each day. A kite-making workshop will be held in the OSEK tent twice each day. Wind Sprints for Children of All Ages will also be held both days.
OSEK is the oldest kite club in Ohio, now in its 33nd year. The group is active from April through October doing community events, workshops and talks in northeastern Ohio’s libraries, schools, parks and with organizations. It is affiliated with the American Kitefliers Association. For more information, check our web site. http://www.osekcleveland.org or E-Mail at kiteinfo@osekcleveland.org
