The
Topeka Kite Flyers Association of Topeka had a perfect Kansas
day for flying kites on Sunday, March 5, 2000 -- warm, sunny and WINDY!
The fly was held on open land
fronting the Governor's Mansion on Fairlawn Rd., north of 6th
St. TKF flies about every other Sunday afternoon during flying seasons--spring,
summer and fall.
There are some very knowledgable
people guiding this organization. Newspaper accounts cover Paul Homan,
a very talented young man whose passion is designing, building and flying
kites. He has the support of his family. His dad, Bob Homan,
can be found at the fly introducing kids to the magic of flight--figure-eights,
loop-the-loops, circles, squares--he handles them all with ease!
One flyer, an ex-fighter pilot,
says he no longer can fly, but that flying kites is the next best thrill!
