Labor Day Weekend, Fly a Kite!

Coming up Labor Day Weekend? Looking for something fun? Make a trip to Beech Mountain and experience the Mile-High Kite Festival. Children of all ages are able to fly a kite 1 mile above sea level, and watch demonstrations from kite clubs all around the area. Face-painting and crafts, the event is fun for all ages, as the kite clubs will also hold a workshop focused on the building of kites.

The first 200 kids will be given kites to fly but participants are encouraged to bring their own. You'll also be able to buy ones in all colors and shapes from local vendors. Join them on Beech Mountain Sunday, September 2th between 9:00am - 4:00pm in the meadows on the top of Beech next to the Brick Over Pizzeria. For fun after the festival, check out the street dance from 7:00pm - 9:00pm, full of music and fun!
