Here's something to put some wind in your sails. Once again, West Baton Rouge is launching high-flying festivities at the West Baton Rouge Soccer Complex. The event has been named "Festival of the Year" by the Louisiana Travel Promotion Association and a Top 20 Event by the Southeast Tourism Society. Attendance has grown tenfold over the years, ballooning to twenty thousand people or so, and on more than one day. It's kite everything here: kite design, kite flying, kite-building. Plus, plenty to eat and drink, and lots of music to dance to—and a burst of fireworks at the end. Starts at 11 am each day. Free. westbatonrouge.net.
