With an entire indoor soccer field at our disposal, this one day event will not include demonstrations or special guests - instead, the focus will be providing ample space all day for everyone who attends (field can accommodate between 7-10 fliers at one time, depending on average skill level... In short terms, there is TONS of space and everyone can get in a lot of flight time on various kites. :)

IMPORTANT DETAILS:

The entire space is being rented just for the fliers ($500 for the day) and *there is a cover charge of $25 for anyone 16 and older* so 20 participants will have us break even, any small excess will be donated to the World Kite Museum, if there is a larger number of registrations then the money will be applied toward a future, similar event for the fliers.

If you would like to attend, please contact Wayne Dowler for payment info - there is a **deadline of March 15th**... Late registration (before March 31st) goes up to $30 for the day.

PAYMENT INFO:

Wayne: "I have a paypal account linked through my email - wodowler@gmail.com - please send any payment as "gift, friend or family" otherwise paypal takes a small amount out for fees."

Hope to see you there!

Recent newscast on indoor flying in the NW! Not sure if it can be seen here, it's on FaceBook. Look on the Portland Area Kite Flyers page for it if you can't see it here.

For you in the NW - Grant's Getaways airs today at 4 pm PST! Those not in the area, there should be links to the episode after it airs. I'll try to put them here too!

As a side note - the several news bits we did have already gotten several to commit to trying indoor flying. We are going to have an "open house" at the soccer center Feb 15, 11-2 pm for those interested. 

If you are in the Portland,OR area and interested in giving indoor flying a try - be a great time to give it a try. Kites provided - just bring yourself!
