All Ages Enjoy Kite Flying

Flying a kite is more than child’s play. Just ask Ray McCully, secretary of the New Zealand Kite Flyers’ Association. He has a collection of over 100 kites. On a good day, he and his wife Rosemary might have 50 – 60 of them aloft at one time. This educational hobby has even taken them around the world.

It all began 19 years ago when their daughters received a kite from grandma. Mom wanted to know why some kites flew and others didn’t. She found a book, made a kite and must have enjoyed the process. Kite flying became a hobby that the whole family could enjoy.
