Saturday 22 May 2010 - Sunday 23 May 2010
10.30am - 5.00pm

A fantastic day with Kites of all colours, shapes and sizes taking to the air at Harewood.

Don't forget to bring your teddy with you for the teddy bear drop which will take place twice during the day.

Parachuting Teddy Bears

Returning to Harewood this year by popular demand are Caroline and Jerry Swift with their team who will be operating two parachute rigs. Bring your brave bears to perform this certified parachute drop. The bears will be fitted with a suitable chute and hoisted high using one of Swift’s many kites. Through an ingenious release mechanism the bear then floats gently to earth.Volunteer bears receive a certificate noting their bravery.

There will be spectacular displays throughout the day from...
