Kite-flying fundraiser promotes youth license plate, programming

The Cary Park District on Saturday took part in a family-oriented kite fly that is part of the Illinois Association of Park Districts' statewide "Flying 4 Kids" celebration. The goal is to raise awareness of the Park District Youth License Plate, which features a colorful kite.

Proceeds from the sale and subsequent renewals of each plate are placed into the IAPD Power Play Grant Program, a grant fund to benefit beyond-school programming for youth at park districts and recreation agencies throughout Illinois.
