Kite Building
Presented by Treehaus Studio at Treehaus Studio Osceola, WI
Participants will learn how to build simple, beautiful kites using lightweight materials and customize their own designs. As we craft together, we’ll also explore how kites have connected people to the sky, to stories, and to one another for centuries. Along the way, we’ll touch on the science of flight, including how the structure of a kite helps it fly, how wind lifts it, how airflow creates lift, and why kites soar when pushed against the wind. This workshop is about more than just building a toy. It is about the wonder of watching something you’ve made take flight. It offers a chance to slow down, enjoy the breeze, and send your creativity soaring into the sky.

This guided adventure begins in Osceola with a rugged hike to Knapp’s Cave—once used by Native Americans and early Swedish settlers—followed by a scenic paddle to Log House Landing in Scandia, where immigrants once arrived by steamship. Learn about the cave's geology -- and hear lively stories from the golden age of river travel, when post–Civil War steamboat excursions featured music, dancing, and even circus outings aboard boats like the G.B. Knapp. A local outfitter will provide canoes or kayaks (choose single or tandem) and will transport participants back to their cars in Osceola. A liminted number of slots are available to bring your own canoe/kayak -- but you must provide your own transportation back to Osceola Landing.

Please bring your own bottle of water to stay hydrated throughout the afternoon. IMPORTANT NOTES: The trip will involve steep slopes at both Knapp's Cave and Log House Landing, as well as approximately 2-3 hours of paddling.
