It is the World wide kite Rendez-Vous of Verdun (Verdun is a suburb (sp?) of Montreal). This is the largest kite festival of the country! There are 12 countries invited. It lasts four days from June 1 to 4. We have it all, from simple open flys, to buggies, initiations, Rokkaku fights, indoor flys and a big night fly! This festival is based on european festivals (like Dieppe). There are **NO** competitions within the event. Everyone will be there! It is held at Parc Therien on the south end of the Island of Montreal. Subway access is through de l'Eglise. There has been some publicity in Kitelines Magasine recently ... See you all in Verdun!

The festival is the 3rd annual Worldwide Kite Rendez-Vous in Verdun (City adjacent to Montreal) It is on from June 1st to 4th and features four days of international kiteflyers, exhibits, workshops etc. Well worth taking time to attend. Contact Lyne Champagne at 514-765-7213 for more info. Will be there this year, see everyone there. Any rec.kiters attending?? Let me know and maybe we can have an impromptu get together. I'll be on the field near a green and pink cabana with a blue club banner.

I also am the designated fighter of the Toronto Kite Fliers Rokkaku so I'm easy to spot. See you all there--I'm looking forward to putting faces to names.
