Welcome to the official homepage of the British Columbia Kitefliers
Association, (BCKA).
The BCKA was founded in 1980 and incorporated under the Society
Act of British Columbia as a nonprofit organization.
The members believe that kiting is for all ages and abilities.
There are many aspects to kiting, from building kites to flying
recreationally as well as competitively. Members of the British
Columbia Kitefliers Association build and fly kites of many descriptions.
These include: traditional, sport, miniature, arches, trains, bolls,
single, multi-line, indoor, and traction kites used for boarding,
buggying and surfing!
Members get together for regular Fun-Flys, workshops and participate
in festivals and competitions locally and world wide. Although most
members are located in British Columbia, our mailing list extends
to many parts of the world.
Like most kite clubs, the BCKA encourages the promotion of any
kite related event anywhere in the world. We encourage kitefliers
and kite-builders of every description to share their knowledge
and enthusiasm with the public.
The BCKA publishes the "Windsox", a quarterly news
letter which is included with annual membership. Any kite related
articles, letters, pictures, anecdotes and up-and-coming events
that you can provide are greatly appreciated and can be submitted
to the Editor.
To find out more about the BCKA, we encourage you to explore
the rest of our site.
