Lake Phalen – Winter Carnival – Kite Fest – 2010
A few weekends ago I went to Lake Phalen to watch the Winer Carnival Ice Boat racing event.
While there I interviewed Kitemaster Mike Gee of Wings on Strings
The interview covers the first three minutes of the video and at about 3:30 you can see the giant kite Spirit Man set sail.

Wings on Strings
Wings on Strings is North Dakota’s Club for Kite Flying
We consider anyone who flies a kite in North Dakota a member of the club. You may already be a member, but did not know it. We have no dues and no meetings.
If you like kites, fly kites, make kites, or want to know more about kites, we’ll help you out. It may be a small state, but North Dakota has its share of nationally recognized kite enthusiasts as well as kite festivals that attract people from across the nation (and Canada).
