Hi! I am Mike Dallmer, your regional director.
Feel free to ask me any questions about the AKA
or Kiting in the Region. Cel, Mike Jr and I travel all over the region
to different kiting events helping out and flying kites whenever we can
We also travel with a Squad of Parachuting Teddy Bears known as Philadelphia
Are Wan-A-Be Skydivers (P.A.W.S.). If you need any type of kite plan I
normally have it, if it has been published or I can find it for you, just
drop me an e-mail.
Good Winds, Up with Kites, down with bears
(But only with a chute). Hope to see you on the flying field!!!
So,
go fly a kite! or build one!
But still do it safely. When flying,
stay away from power lines. Don't fly in the rain. Don't fly over other
people.
Do have a great time!
