Rosebud Kite Festival flies high ANOTHER ‘cast of thousands’ turned up on Rosebud’s foreshore on Sunday 13th, to enjoy the spectacle of the annual Kite Festival, presented by the local Rosebud traders. The afternoon breeze picked up to see the full quota of maxi kites fill the sky, with professional kite flyers traveling from New Zealand, ACT and from across Victoria to display their skills and show their interesting kites. With local musicians entertaining from the stage, kids rides, face painters, stilt walkers, animal farm, reptile displays and a host of food stalls lined along the site, this family oriented festival saw smiling faces throughout the day. The Rosebud Chamber of Commerce thanks all their sponsors, in particular the financial support of the Mornington Peninsula Shire, Lamattina Fruit Growers and Bendigo Bank. Thousands of dollars was raised for local community groups on the day, including the Dromana Sea Scouts, Rosebud Scouts, Rosebud CFA, McCrae Lions, Boneo Cricket Club and the events’ nominated charity, One Voice.
