The Kiwanis Ocean Beach Kiwanis is presenting their 79th Ocean Beach Children’s Kite Festival on Saturday May16th from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. at Robb Field in Ocean Beach. Free kites for children and prizes are given out for the best decorated kites throughout the day. There will be professional kite demonstrations, craft and food vendors. The best part of the festival are the kite games where the children are separated in age groups who run after the kite tail in an attempt to pull it down. The child that attains that goal wins a prize. Then, there is the flying kite pinata game. Every child has a chance to break it so all can grab for candy as it falls to the ground.

Love binds families together. But when something traumatic, secret, or unresolved happens in a system, that love can unconsciously bind us to pain that isn’t actually ours. In a Family Constellations workshop, we gently explore those hidden loyalties — not to blame anyone, but to restore order, belonging, and movement where things have felt stuck. People often walk away with: • A deeper sense of relief or clarity • Compassion for parents or ancestors they’ve struggled to understand • A shift in long-standing relational or professional patterns • A feeling of standing in their own life more fully and freely Family and Soul Constellations are facilitated by Rachel Alexandria, MFA, MA Former psychotherapist turned metaphysical teacher Certified Constellations Facilitator since 2010 by the Seattle Constellations Institute.

Directed by San Diego resident and world-renowned underwater cinematographer Howard Hall, "Deep Sea" will transport audiences deep below the ocean surface to swim with some of the most exotic creatures on the planet, from the bizarre Rainbow Nudibranch to the Giant Pacific Octopus. Complementing the educational mission of the Fleet, "Deep Sea" will inspire audiences, not only with breathtaking views of the tremendous diversity of marine life but also by illustrating the importance of interrelationships between animals to the health of the environment. From the mantis shrimp—who engages in a one-on-one, matador-like challenge with a threatening octopus—to the green sea turtle—who allows schools of fish aestheticians to clean its shell of unwanted algae—the film focuses on the unusual and often surprising alliances struck between some of the world’s most extraordinary animals. Filming locations range from the Sea of Cortez to three different spots off the coast of California—near Catalina Island, near the Breakwater at Monterey and La Jolla Shores in San Diego.
