We have been invited to participate in the Hythe Festival. The event will take place on "The Green" adjacent to Portland Road, Hythe. We have been allocated a large area, as they wish the kites to form a major backdrop to the event. The date has been set for Saturday 18th June 2022. More details will follow in due course.

A brief update on this one, having spoken with the organisers today.
We will have access to the field from 9am and can fly until we are bored, cold, hot, bothered etc. 500 ft height clearance has been applied for to run from 9am to 6pm. I am hoping that some anchor bags will be available, but please bring ground anchors just in case. Access is via the small carpark on Portland Road. For what3words users image.infringe.looms gets you to the carpark and dude.format.truffles is the centre of our flying area I think.
In addition to flying we have been asked to sell kites.
I'm told that there should be food stalls and a bar on site.

Just one week to our first flying event of the year. Height clearance to 500ft commences at 9am. We are flying, and selling kites. I will aim to be there at about 10am
It would be useful to know who plans to attend.

Thanks to all who came along to Hythe today. Conditions were far from ideal, but the organisers seemed happy with our efforts. It looks like they want it to become an annual event.
