March 20, 2010 we conducted the first annual Kite Festival! This festival was located at Jack Dalton Park. Thanks to the Piedmont Arts Association and Martinsville Parks and Recreation we had over 500 make your own kite kits that were donated to us for this event! Children were able to come in and make their own personal kites, paint them with the guidance of college students and real artists from Studio 107. Participants also took part in watching the Henry County Patriot acrobatics. The Henry County Patriots brought their model aircraft and held demonstrations along with giving people a chance to practice flight using their flight simulator! Also at the event, we had a make your own bubble wand bubble station, paper helicopter station, parachute games, disc golf competitions with prizes, and SEMAA had a station where participants were able to build kites and noise makers! It was a busy and fun day! Participants did not run out of activities to take part in.
We had over 500 participants, a beautiful day, games, crafts, and prizes, it was an amazing event!
Special thanks goes out to all the volunteers for this event, it would not have been as successful without you guys!
