Welcome everyone! We have lots of news.
Good News
We should be able to fly again, but it will be on a monthly basis May-October.
The exact schedule is TBD but we're trying for a mix of Saturdays and Sundays, avoiding the Whidbey Island Fun Fly dates.
Bad News
For now we won't get to fly as often as we used to.
Insurance is important to the Port of Everett and it will require everyone to have an American Kite Association (AKA) membership. Cost information is below.
Insurance through the AKA has a $200/year premium.
The Port of Everett will not be issuing a blanket permit to the club, so we can't fly whenever we want.
The Port of Everett charges $25 to reserve the park for our Fun Flies.
