Today in Lexington: Calendar Spotlight
Here's one on the calendar for Saturday worth knowing about. There's a Kite Fest happening today at Masterson Station Park, running from noon to four p.m.
Oh, that sounds fun! Is this something the city puts on, or is it more of a community thing?
It's actually through Parks and Recreation, so yeah, it's a city event. And the best part is it's completely free.
Nice! I haven't been to a kite festival in years. What's the setup like? Just bring your own kite, or do they have activities planned?
From what I'm seeing, it's all about celebrating kites and aerial fun, so I'd imagine there's probably both. Kids flying kites, maybe some demonstrations, that whole scene.
Perfect day for it too, with this breeze we've got going.
Absolutely. Sometimes the simplest things make for the best Saturday afternoons.
