Significant others who are not kite flyers don’t need to be registered. Registration is limited to 75 people so don’t waste flyer spots. Registered and can’t go?

Fighter Kites Comp will be today!!
Time: Fly/Practice All Day. Competition time fluid but generally EARLY afternoon depending on winds and number of competitors.
Lunch: I would plan to be on your own for lunch.
Activity: Fighter Kite Competition. Two classes – Club and Open. Club Class – everyone flies the same type of kite which is provided by the Club. This year we are flying Mylar Fighters donated by Robert Loera and used in his World Record of flying the most kites on one line. Free but donations are welcome. Open Class – bring and fly whatever kite you want!
This is a good chance to try of a not very fierce fighter competition if you are new to fighters, most of aren’t that good!

Activity: Practice for the Dec 31st Fighter Kite Competition/Fly.
Wacky Holiday Gift Exchange. Basics – Bring a wrapped gift, take a gift home. General Rules – All gifts put in a pile. Names are drawn of participants one at a time. First person picks a gift and opens it. Next person drawn can pick a new gift or steal a gift from anyone who has already opened one. The person whos gift was stolen gets another and opens it. Any one gift can only be stolen twice. Third owner keeps it. Rinse and repeat until all gifts are gone and all participants have a gift.
Gifts – something in the $20 range is the goal. Ideally something kite related but not strictly enforced. Something you would want to receive.
