[Cleveland] The Ohio Society for the Elevation of Kites was founded in 1977 by a group of kite enthusiasts. Although the club structure remains informal, we elect officers to organize and oversee activities. Our main purpose is to encourage new kite flyers, share ideas, knowledge, experience, building and flying tips, and to have fun. Members range from eight to eighty-five. Anyone who enjoys the magic of kites is welcome to fly with us whether you are a member or not. Members of OSEK live in Columbus, Wooster, Medina, Youngstown, Mentor, Solon, Cleveland, Akron, Massillon, Canton, and small towns between! O.S.E.K. members have competed and participated in kiting on local, national, and even international levels.
COME FLY WITH US!
O.S.E.K. offers kite building workshops for area schools, clubs and groups. We present talks and demonstrations. We paint the sky with kites for park systems, community celebrations, and at the Cleveland Kite Festival in September. We also have our annual club members only “FLEXI FOOL Competition and Birthday picnic”. In April, National Kite Month, we can be found at the Youngstown Kite Festival, Medina Metro Parks Earth Day, Parkman Township Kite Day, and other places, as scheduled.
All requests for participation (workshops, demos, displays, kite flying) are presented to the members at next possible meeting and voted on. Due to an increase in requests and the limited number of volunteer members available, we regret we can’t cover them all.
At our monthly “free fly”, O.S.E.K. members share ideas, fly our kites, and socialize. We also hold brief, informal field meetings for business needs. Attendance is greater from April to September than during the winter months. Two Special meetings are held to discuss club business, one in March, which includes our annual Auction and election of officers, and the other in November.

[New Smyrna Beach] Get ready for a high-flying weekend of colorful fun at the New Smyrna Beach Kite Festival! Located directly on the beach, just south of Flagler Avenue, this event is sure to provide real "fun-in-the-sun" for the whole family! There will be professional kite demonstrations; and free lessons and tips for novices, including free kite kits and decorating stations for the kids! Adults and children are also encouraged to bring their own kites. Admission is free, but registration (on a walk-up basis, the day of the event) is required.
Kite Stop will be there with a tent to sell kites, and there will be a sectioned off area for doing kite demonstrations throughout the day.
Contact me directly (john@kitestop.com) if you would like to be more involved in the planning/organizing of this event.

[Nags Head] Come celebrate the end of a great year with us at our Kitty Hawk Kites Store in Nags Head (mile post 12.5). On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, come out to our store to see Santa himself! Santa visits us each year in hopes of getting to fly a hang glider! On Saturday, the kite festival begins on Jockeys Ridge!
Santa always makes sure to see each and every child before he leaves for the day. If it’s good weather, he’ll be outside, and if it’s cold he’ll move inside the store so the kids can stay warm. We hope you make this a yearly tradition with your family like we have with ours!
As soon as the sun starts to set, come up to Jockeys Ridge and see huge 19′ delta kites soar above the dunes. When it starts to get dark, the lights really begin to show up! Check out our Facebook page for pictures from last year’s event.
If you get cold, it’s no problem! We’ll have hot cider and tons of cookies inside our store, free of charge for all spectators. If you want to be out on the dunes under the kites. Bring flashlights, glow sticks, and other light up toys.
