From the organizers of Urban Golf and the Urban Iditarod comes: KITE FIGHT! Flying pretty kites at Chrissy Fields is for sissies, the 9.8th Fighting Kite Brigade challenges you to a kite duel.

Do not bring a quality kite as we are attaching razor blades and nails to the kite and dueling in the skies! We recommend you bring a craptastic plastic kite and some razor blades or whatever weaponry you see fit.

If you’re not in a fighting mood come down, fly kites with us and soaking in the best view of the city.
