Whether you’re a seasoned kite flyer or a complete novice, the wide-open spaces of Tod’s Point Beach provided the perfect canvas for creativity and a healthy dose of friendly competition.
With the gentle ocean breeze as their guide, participants of all ages sent their kites dancing across the sky, their vibrant hues a stark contrast to the gray drizzle.
