Children giggle with delight as they run across the field their kites trailing behind them like ribbons in the wind. Parents join in the fun, helping their little ones launch their kites into the air and cheering them on as they soar higher and higher.

But the fun doesn't stop there. Chico Kite Day is also a chance to connect with the community, as families come together to enjoy food, music, and games. Picnic blankets dot the landscape as families gather for impromptu lunches, swapping stories and sharing laughs amidst the backdrop of fluttering kites.For many families, Chico Kite Day has become a cherished tradition—a day to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life and reconnect with each other and with nature. It's a chance to slow down, breathe in the fresh air, and marvel at the simple beauty of a kite soaring through the sky.

So mark your calendars and dust off your kites—Chico Kite Day awaits! Join us on April 14th from 12 pm to 3 pm at Community Park, located at 1900 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Parkway in Chico. Let's come together as a community to celebrate the simple joys of flight, laughter, and togetherness. We'll see you there!
