Hey thanks for the link. They still don't have the date for next years Stevetson festival. I hope it's at the same time which would be the weekend after the Pincher Creek festival. I'll be takeing my holidays for the PC fest, and I want to go to Van as well.
Pincher Creek is a very windy little town. The place were the fest is held is called 'Windy Point' and its at the Oldmand Dam. |

Was a time when you could predict these events because each year was a Carbon copy of the previous one. However I believe that there will be a minor reshuffle for 2004. I should be able to tell you more after the club executive meeting next week.  _________________ Don Lord |

I got a festival for ya then Gary.
13th annual Children of the Wind Kite Festival
Date: July 17 and 18, 2004
Town: Pincher Creek, Alberta, Canada
Location: Oldman River Dam
Special Guests: Ray Bethell, Roger and Janice Maddy
Ray has attended this festival every single year since it started.
Camping on site is 5 dollars. 'on site' means roll out of your tent, launch your kite, and your done. It's literally on the site The campground at the bottom of the dam is 7 dollars. The hotels in town fill up quick for this event, so make a reservation early.
Thanks Gary.

Thanks Don.
Hmmm, I've already booked my holidays to include the Pincher Creek festival (see above) and the following week. Guess Ill have to split my holidays up then. That's fine by me.
Thanks for the footwork Don. I appreciate it.
