Two outdoors events for those heading to the beach this weekend:

1) Kite festival in Lewes:

It's called the Great Delaware Kite Festival, it's competitive, and there is a category for adults (as well as kids).  Your kite can be home-made or store-bought.  Register at 9am on Friday at Cape Henlopen State Park.  Competitors get in free, Delaware cars pay $4.  No word on how having or not having a parks annual pass affects the fee.  (By the way, if you don't have a state parks annual pass and you go to the parks more than, say, twice a year, get one.  It pays for itself after something like 5 visits, and it's actually a great motivator to get out into the parks more often for some hiking, disc golf, or whatever your pleasure is.  You can pick one up at any state park office).

2) Bethany / Fenwick Island Beach Clean-up:
Meet on Saturday morning "at the main beach Bath House parking lot at the south end of Fenwick Island State Park (just north of the Bethany-Fenwick Chamber of Commerce building)". 9am-noon.  Clean-up materials will be provided. Call 227-6991 if you  need more info, or visit:
