Dear fellow Hanoverians:
Looking for April vacation ideas? The Hanover Cultural Council is
excited to announce *Kite Day* for Hanover’s children. On Saturday,
April 14, Dr. Wallace Kemp will again open his field at 688 Main
Street from 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. to anyone interested in flying a
kite (pending good weather). This field is situated on a hill which
affords wonderful kite-flying on a moderately windy day. As the field
is part of larger conservation area of the Wildlands Trust of
Southeastern Massachusetts, there is plenty of space for all. Don
McCasland, the Program Director of the Blue Hill Observatory and an
avid kite-lover, will also be at the field to provide great tips on
kite-flying technique.
In conjunction with this event, the Friends of the John Curtis Free
Library will host a *kite-making program* on Saturday, April 14 from
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. downstairs at the John Curtis Free Library.
Don McCasland will provide kite kits and show you how to construct
your kite. This event is recommended to children ages 4-8 with a
parent and for 8 and over without a parent (the parent must otherwise
remain in the library). The program lasts for about an hour. These
activities are free (funded by the Hanover Cultural Council and the
Friends of the John Curtis Free Library) and open to the public, but
you must register your child to make a kite at the children’s
circulation desk at the library. There are 40 spaces reserved from
10:15 a.m. to 11:00 a.m., another 40 spaces from 11:15 a.m. to 12:00
p.m.
