July Fun Fly

Our July Fun Fly at Bug Light Park in South Portland turned out to be a two day affair with Saturday the day for lots of stunt kite flyers and Sunday brought out the Dragon kites. Jan Helbers added a dragon head to his stack of 18 Dynakites to join in the festivities but I am sorry to say that I didn't get a picture of that. John Martin, Ralph Reed and Hank Manseau flew their traditional Chinese dragon kites and they were quite a sight with a train of lifting disks 60 feet long on each.
