I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
Fall festivals typically involve things like giant pumpkins and corn mazes, hot cider and hayrides. But in Oregon? Our fall festivals are as unique as the Beaver State herself. On the Oregon Coast, the Fall Kite Festival is *the* event of the season; it’s a delightful experience that dots the skies with fanciful, colorful, whimsical kites. Don’t miss out on the Fall Kite Festival in Lincoln City; it’s an only-in-Oregon experience that’s pure magic.
A beloved and longstanding Lincoln City tradition, the annual Fall Kite Festival is a two-day celebration that's the epitome of good, old-fashioned fun.
For two days, folks can come and enjoy all kinds of fanciful fun, from exciting kite demonstrations by experts and DIY kite-making stations to a parade and endless display of colorful, giant kites floating above the beach.
Lincoln City is known as the "Kite Capital of the World," and with more than seven miles of beach, it's no wonder why. The annual Fall Kite Festival puts this Oregon Coast town on the map in a big and beautiful way, and it really is a magical event you need to experience in person.
Have you attended the Fall Kite Festival in years past? It’s high-flying fun for everyone! The 2022 Fall Kite Festival takes place Oct. 1-2 at D River State Recreation Site in Lincoln City, Oregon, and you can learn more at the official event website.
