Children wrestle, tug and play with their kites to keep them afloat at the 4th annual Kite Day at WC Johnson Park in Collierville. The kite started four years ago with 5 kite fliers in attendance and has grown to over 60 this past year. Hosted by the Collierville Parks and Recreation Department and sponsored by Fogelman Properties, the day attracts fliers of all ages. Prizes were also passed out for most unique, most colorful and highest flying kites.
