Cabin fever is setting in here in Western NY, starting to plan our trips.
We enjoy kite flying. We're novices...have single-line, 2-line, and 4-line kites. We have enjoyed kite festivals at Grand Haven, Michigan and Newport, RI but would like to find other ones. If anyone has a suggestion for a nice kite festival east of the Mississippi please let us know...camping is a must in the area. Grand Haven, Michigan was great, camped right at the festival, on the lake...absolutely perfect. Also interested in nice flying areas with camping close by.
Keep Warm

Bluegrass,
I know that you will be in Lancaster County soon. There is an excellent kite flying location just on the west side of the Susquehanna river in York County. Take the Wrightsville exit and go south to Sam Lewis State Park. Even if you don't bring a kite, the park has a great view of the river. I live about 10 miles south of the park.

Thanks for the tip. We didn't have the best weather so didn't get the flying in....kites are always in the back of the truck. We will keep it in mind if we go back to the area in the fall. Bluegrass

We are thinking about the DOG also. Then we might go flying kites where lynnmor suggested. Sounds like it could be a good trip. These are 2 of our 3 favorite things to do while camping...the 3rd being basic geocaching.

If we get there, we will definitely look for you. I checked there website, I can't remember if we needed to reserve early for camping spot. Have to look again.
