N. Salt Lake combines Easter egg hunt with community kite festival

NORTH SALT LAKE — An event that usually lasts a couple minutes turned into a much longer affair Saturday, when North Salt Lake combined the annual Easter egg hunt with its first kite festival.

Once the kids were finished collecting eggs, they received a free kite from city council members. The 500 kites were purchased using donations from local businesses.

The fields at the park filled up quickly with families putting together their new toy. The wind was just right, and within minutes more than two dozen kites were floating in the air, accompanied by a lot of laughter and smiles, shouts to run faster so kites could get enough lift and careful maneuvering to make sure kite strings didn’t get intertwined.
