9th Annual Prairie Winds Kite Fly
It was a beautiful September day for this year's Prairie Winds Kite Fly, held at the Jackson Municipal Airport from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. (always on the second Saturday of September). Approximately 700 visitors attended our event. Professional kite flyers from Minneapolis, Omaha, NE, and Jamestown, ND, were out in full force with an array of giant kites. Children were able to create their own sled kites to fly, with help from PEBC's staff and friends. We were entertained by DJ Tom Van Weston and concessions were provided by Godfather's Pizza of Windom. Our own Kite Doctor Bert McClain was kept busy all day mending broken kites.
