Kites Will Soar at Broadneck Park
Bring your kite and a picnic lunch to the park on Saturday for an afternoon of high-flying fun.
The first-ever Broadneck Kite Festival is scheduled for Saturday at noon, and event organizer Kara McGuirk-Allison said she's hoping thunderstorms don't scare away any attendees.
As of Wednesday afternoon, The Weather Channel was forecasting a 30-percent chance of rain Saturday with isolated thunderstorms.
"I am selfishly hoping the much-needed rain holds off until Sunday," McGuirk-Allison said. "Hopefully, we'll have some great sunshine and strong wind."
