Dear fellow Hanoverians:
“Let’s Go Fly a Kite!” The Hanover Cultural Council is excited to
announce Kite Day for Hanover’s children. On Saturday, May 10, 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. The field is part of a larger conservation area of
the Wildlands Trust of Southeastern Massachusetts, so 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. Parking is on Main Street or the side
streets, Buena Vista or Buttercup.
In conjunction with this event, the Friends of the John Curtis Free Library
will host a kite-making program on Saturday, May 10 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 for children ages 4 – 8 with a parent and for 8 years 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.
For more information about the program, contact lcampbell@ocln.org , and
