Fly a Kite for Mental Heath
by Michael Jordan
(Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada)
Fly a Kite for Mental Health is an event in Winnipeg, Manitoba at Kildonan Park May 7th, 2016 from 12:30 to 4:30. This is to build awareness for youth mental health and suicide awareness. We will be holding a kite auction, with unique design kites, to raise funds for youth mental health initiatives.
All funds raised go to the Partnership for Mental Health national movement, the Right by You campaign. We welcome people, families and kite lovers alike to come and enjoy the day!
Come fly a kite in for mental health. Be this is memory for someone, to honor someone, to celebrate or just to have fun. We welcome all to this fantastic day!
Contact information is as follows:
Email: volunteers@partnersformh.ca
Phone: 613-683-3741
Thank you very much!
Michael Jordan (I am a volunteer with Partners for Mental Heath, a non-profit organization. It would be great if you could advertise this on your site as it would help us a lot.)

I can tell you love kites...
Otherwise you wouldn't be all the way down here near the bottom of the page :-)
So, could you do me just a small favor?
Please sign up for my free monthly publication, "Tethered Flying". No other emails will be sent, and your details are safe with me. You do need to be at least 16 years old. There's...
- A huge "photo of the month" (linked from a much smaller one in the email of course)
- 3 "tips of the month" (1 for beginners, 1 for parents and 1 for more experienced kite-fliers)
- A "flight report of the month" (selected from my own flying logs and illustrated with a photo)
Looking forward to hearing from you...
P.S. My free kite-making e-book "Simplest Dowel Kites" can be downloaded as soon as you sign up.
Need winders, reels, flying line?

Hey - grab your free e-book first :-)
I'm referring to Simplest Dowel Kites, my popular kite-making download. It's a printable PDF file. Make a diamond, delta or sled. Each kite is capable of flying hundreds of feet up for hours on end.
Could you do me just a small favor though?
