American Kitefliers Association Convention & Grand National Competition

On September 23 through the 27, the American Kitefliers Association Convention & Grand National Competition will be taking place in Gettysburg. This event is going to be really neat, with the convention being one of the largest kite gatherings in the world!

There will be kite making competitions, kite flying events and workshops. There will also be extremely large kites, including a 130-foot Octopus and the Megaflag kite, one of the three largest in the world at 10,000 square feet!

If in the area, be sure to check out this free event open to the public.
