Club Banners at NWKA'S Canal Days
Kite Festival
The Niagara Windriders welcome visiting kite fliers from other clubs. We encourage you to fly with us at Lakeview Park if you are in the area on one of our flying dates.
Any person interested in learning about kites and kite flying is welcome to attend one of our regular club flying events.
The Niagara Windriders conduct periodic workshops and clinics for serious kite hobbyists. We also offer introductory workshops for adults and children upon request.
Since our members do this on a voluntary basis, scheduling and preplanning are necessary.
If you wish to pursue the possibility of having a kite workshop or presentation about kites for you group, please send an email request to our general email in-box: info@windriders.niagara.com
