Wind River Kites-Make Your Own Kite

Description

“Wind River Kites – Make Your Own Kite” Saturday, April 26, 10:00 – Noon
 
Visit the Dubois Museum in Dubois for this Bailey's Tire and Pit StopTravel Center Children's Exploration Series program.   
 
In 1811, William Price Hunt wrote that the Wind River was named because “in the winter, the wind blows so constantly that it prevents the snow from lying on the ground.”  Come learn about the history of kites dating back thousands of years and then design and fly your own kite on the winds of the Wind River.  This program will combine children’s creativity with the historic recreation of kite flying. 
 
This program is for children ages 6 – 17.  $3 per child.  Please register in advance.  Call the Dubois Museum for more information 307-455-2284.
