In addition to publishing post-event articles and reports, Kitelife also provides free space for any pre-event press release or promotional article... The sky is the limit with web media, feel free to include photos and as much information as you'd like.

If you'd like to take advantage of this, just email us.

Another excellent and often overlooked resource are the kite clubs throughout the USA.  In addition to the usual festivals, these groups generally offer regular fun flies one or more times per month and provide a much more laid back environment for "a day at the park"... Make sure you contact YOUR local club, which can be found on the AKA web site:
