Idaho Kite Festival and other kiting happenings
Mostly, I'll share information about what's going on with kiters in Idaho and in the kite world. Also, I'll share personal activities, progress on the annual Idaho Kite Festival (www.myspace.com/iskf), and announcements of other cultural, entertainment and educational events in my life; and discuss any of the above with readers.

Kudos to all the volunteers at the Community Environmental Fair
From the standpoint of my The Sky's The Limit! volunteers, who made kites for more than 4 hours, we think the Community Environmental Fair organizers and volunteers should receive Journal Roses for providing this enlightening, fun, and practical event to educate and ease the public into earth-friendly living.
The Fair went great!  The volunteer cooks intended to cook and give away 400 burgers and 300 hotdogs...and ran out way early and doubled that number before the Fair ended.
The weather was outrageously gorgeous.  Even the kites had a breeze to fly most of the afternoon.  I'd prepped about 180 kite kits from newspaper, shopping bags, stuff like that - recycling, you know.  We ran out and were making kites from scratch nearly an hour after the official end of the Fair at 3:00!  So we came close to 200, if not over.  We were so busy (special thanks to Chelsea, Joan, Marie and JoEtta) we didn't have a chance to check out the Fair, get all the freebies, eat - but it was great fun!  Chelsea took several photos and they are all of us with our heads down, bent over tables and working our buns off!
If we ran out of kites before you got to our tables, please come to a workshop on the JHub calendar and make one.  We want everyone to have a kite to fly at the Idaho Kite Festival Oct 2-5 this fall, and will be holding workshops all year long!
