Rain vs. Kite»»
Saturday, March 14th, 2009It’s not looking good for the weather, but rain permitting, let’s try to get together tomorrow and fly!

Welcome Washington Post Readers»»
Thursday, December 13th, 2007If you saw us in today’s Washington Post, welcome to the world of kites!
We hope you’ll join is on the field come Spring. Kids, feel free to bring your parents — kids of all ages can fly. We generally have spare kites you can borrow if you don’t have your own.
If you find it hard to catch up with us, or if you are too far away, check our links page for other area clubs. The American Kitefliers Association can help you find a club in your area if you are not in DC.

Interested in Kite Fighting?»»
Tuesday, April 1st, 2003What’s that!? Fighting, did you say? Absolutely. Don’t worry, it’s all good clean fun. Teams of kite flyers take to the field in a sort of aerial demolition derby, trying to be the last kite still aloft. See our photo gallery for some pictures of previous events. Midnight Squadron is looking for people of all ages and abilities to join us in training and competition. For more details, e-mail info@midnightsquadron.org. You’ll have to be in the Washington,DC area to fly with us in person, but we can also steer you toward a local club if you are not near us.
