See Some of North America’s Largest Kites on Display in Minnesota this Weekend

It looks like it's going to be an amazing weekend weather-wise, so make sure to get out and enjoy it during our last little bit of summer in Minnesota. There are lots of events going on this weekend and this one caught my eye.

Huge Kites Taking Over the Skies of Albert Lea, MN

The event says that it's going to have some of the largest kites in North America! It's called the 'Let Inclusion Fly' Albert Lea Kite Festival.

The group that's providing these massive kites is called Great American Kites. And when I say massive, I mean it!

Isn't that so cool? They'll be doing a whole giant kite display during the event. Also at the event, there will be food trucks, kite activities for kids, kites for purchase, free face painting, and more.

The event is taking place at Edgewater Park in Albert Lea from 11 AM - 4 PM.

But the reason for all of this isn't just for fun, although it does look very fun. The reason is to raise money for a special project in Albert Lea.

All Together Albert Lea Inclusive Playground & Miracle Field

All proceeds from the event will go towards the All Together Albert Lea Inclusive Playground & Miracle Field project.

They want to build a playground a field that kids of all abilities can use, so that's exactly what you'll be supporting when you go to this cool kite event.

So if you're looking for something fun to do this Saturday, this would be a great event for the whole family, plus you're supporting a good cause.
