SUNDAY WEATHER UPDATE: While our main Salty 'Sea'esta event on Saturday 7 June is still going ahead, unfortunately SALTY SUNDAY on 8 June has had to be mostly cancelled due to the predicted weather. However, the Adelaide Kite Flyers are still aiming to get their kites up in the air, provided the weather doesn't get too extreme, so feel free to check them out at Rotary Park at the Whyalla Foreshore between 10am-1pm.
