Kite lady, Judi Sundland of Forget-Me-Not Gift Shop in Rossport said, "We're becoming known for our kites and wind- socks. It's not just a sport for the young either. I know an 84 year-old father who got one for Father's Day last year and loves it!' Most of the kites carried in the store are made in Canada but the range of prices are varied. For $3.95 you can get a mini souvenir kite with spool just for that little one who it's fun, seller says may loose interest quickly. However, for the avid kite flyer, you can go up past $50 per kite. Kite flying has come a long way since the home- Gerow's home. The meet- ing was chaired by Doris Legault, the retiring presi- dent. She led in the open- ing prayers and welcomed the priest Rev.

A friend of mine was recently visiting in the British Isles and while in Wales, copied the long word and dared me to pronounce it. Well I just can't get my tongue twisted around it:Langairpwllg- wyngyllgogerychwyrnd- robwillantysillogogogoch. It is sure heavy on the let- ters W, L, G and O--now I wonder if you can pro- nounce it? The meaning in English is "St. Mary's Church in a hollow by the white hazel, close to the rapid whirlpool by the cave of St. Tysilio.'" (The word is supposed to be spoken in one breath.) The Welsh language is very musical. made kite. Now there are High Performers and aero- dynamic lines, Ace two- spooled kites that, with a pull of one spool will take the kite into continuous "loop-de-loops.'" Dragon kites range from 18 feet in length to 50 feet and come in a rainbow of colours all on one kite. "This is a favorite,"' Judi said. "Not only is it easy to get up but when fly- ing it undulates in splashes of colour and you can't keep your eyes off the ac- tion. We even have a Para- foil 7.5 with 100 pound braided test line that can fly behind a boat and literally help it along,"she said. There are some kite tips for those of you who may find yourself on the end of a kite line. Remember, the line is your relationship with the kite. A line that is too light for a given kite might break under sudden- ly increased tension, and a line too heavy decreases the kite's performance. Use a fishing snap swivel at the end of your flying line to easily attach and detach your line from the kite. They give you one free with every spool. When flying a kite, re- member these two prin- ciples: (1) When you pull in the line of a kite, you ac- celerate the motion of the kite, (2) When you let line out, causing it to slacken, a kite will float. So...to continue in a desired direc- tion, pull in the kite's line and when you want to in- terrupt the kite's course to change direction, let line out. When the kite finds a desirable direction, pull in the line again. Kite flying is worth hours of enjoyment. It's a sensation to feel the tension on your line and watch your kite soar, stall, fall and lift again. "But be careful, it could become addictive," Judi laughs. "'We even fly here in the winter off the ice!
