As the RD for Region 3 I get copies of all events added to the Calendar. This year the event is called the Blossom Kite Festival. It will be held on Sunday instead of Saturday as in previous years but will continue many of the activities. Please refer to the AKA Calendar page, and go to the National Cherry Blossom Festival website for more information. http://www.nationalcherryblossomfestival.org/

IF anyone wishes to volunteer to help, contact me at the RD3 e-mail address and I will send you the contact information.

Sad to see a 44 year tradition gone like that. Is there a theme for the kite build this year?

"To mark the transition from the Smithsonian Kite Festival to the Blossom Kite Festival, this year’s suggested theme is spring and blossom-inspired kites. "
