FALL LIFESTYLES
American Kiteflyers Association The American Kitefliers Association has over 4,000 members, in 35 countries, they are the largest association of kiters in the world. Their purpose is to educate the public in the art, history, technology and practice of building and flying kites – to advance the joys and values of kiting in all nations. The various men, women, adults and children in this association are from all walks of life. Their interests run from kitebuilding to multi-line kite competition, from miniature kites, to aerial photography and more. Some of the members are in the kite trade, but they are not a trade organization. The AKA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public in the art, history, technology, and practice of building and flying kites.
