ACTON - Three Rivers Land Trust hosts a kite-flying day for Great Maine Outdoor Weekend on Sept. 20 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Hobb's Farm, 651 Foxes Ridge Road in Acton.

Kite flying is a great way for families to enjoy the outdoors together and Great Maine Outdoor Weekend is about celebrating all the outdoor recreation events that Maine has to offer.

Bring a picnic lunch and a kite if you have one. The trust will have some kites to share. Members of the Nor'Easters Kite Club of South Portland will also be participating. They will bring a variety of kites to demonstrate.

"We love celebrating Great Maine Outdoor Weekend," said Three Rivers board member Larissa Crockett, a steward of the Hobb's Farm. "Hobb's is such a wonderful place to spend time outside, and we hope many families will come out to enjoy the day."

The rain date is Oct. 4.

While the event is Sept. 20, the Hobb's Farm is open to the public to enjoy at any time of the year.
