Wind River Kites-Make Your Own Kite
In 1811, William Price Hunt wrote that the Wind River was named because “in the winter, the wind blows so constantly that it prevents the snow from lying on the ground.” Come learn about the history of kites dating back thousands of years and then design and fly your own kite on the winds of the Wind River. This program will combine children’s creativity with the historic recreation of kite flying.
