FLY SA F E LIKE K1TEMANI
Halloooo down there! It sure is fun to be
Kiteman and fly around safely up here. And
you know, it's even more fun when you fly
safely too.
That means flying kites made of paper, or
plastic, or even pastrami! Just as long as
your kite, or your kite string, is never, ever
made with metal or wife
Flying safe means flying when it's sunny
too. so your string doesn t get wet, and your
tail doesn t get soggy, and your feet don't
get stuck in the mud.
'And safe flying always means flying away
from traffic, tv antennas, and kite-eating
power lines But if your kite does get caught
in a power line remember: don't pull its
strina Instead, call me: the Kiteman at
Pacific Power
“So fly safe like me. Then, color me too!
Just pick up a free Kiteman coloring poster
at your local Pacific Power office."
