Central Coast residents of all ages will send hundreds of brightly colored kites soaring into the sky Sunday, April 15, at the 9th annual Free Family Kite Festival. More than 2,000 people are expected to attend this popular community event, which will run from noon to 4 p.m. at Rotary Centennial Park, 2625 S. College Drive, in Santa Maria.
Presented by the Santa Maria Valley Discovery Museum, the Kite Festival will feature professional kite-flying demonstrations, contests, food, vendors and music by family rock band BIRDIE. Kite Ambassadors from the American Kitefliers Association will be on hand to help families and to ensure smooth flying. There will also be a kite “hospital” at the park for kites that need first aid.
"With our reputation as a windy city, Santa Maria is the perfect location for the family kite festival," museum Executive Director Chris Slaughter said. "We encourage the community to join us for this fun outdoor event that promotes quality, healthy outdoor activities for families."
