Traverse City Kite Derby on South Lake Leelanau

The annual TC Kite Derby will be held next weekend (Feb 16-18). The likely location will be at the Bingham access on South Lake Leelanau (most likely, but it depends on wind). There will be a Free-Ride Session at the Event site from 2-5 PM on Friday. On saturday, GPS speed runs & freestyle exhibition from noon-2 PM and the distance run around the lake from 3-4 PM. Makeup times are Sunday. Check the link to the official site below for more.
