Miniature Kite Building Workshop
April 2007
 
 
Marilyn Moore-Watson led the seminar and patiently walked us through building a mini-kite.   She brought all required materials and tools.

We found that making a kite so small was a meticulous process, but in the end we all went home with a nice mini-kite or two.  A few attendees complained about eye-strain, I guess the next seminar would be about lasik surgery.

Many thanks to Cathy Green for providing a space for our workshop at Challenger Middle School.
