The contest was held on July 4, 1855, and it was open to all comers. The only requirement was that the kites had to be made of paper and string. There were no restrictions on the size or shape of the kites, and the contestants were free to use any design they wanted.
The contest was a huge success. Thousands of people turned out to watch the kites fly, and the event was covered by newspapers and magazines around the world. The winning kite was a large, red, white, and blue kite that was flown by a man named John Smith. Smith's kite was awarded a prize of $50, and it was displayed in the window of a local store for several weeks.
The kite flying contest helped to promote the Niagara Falls Suspension Bridge as a tourist destination. The bridge was already a popular tourist attraction, but the contest helped to increase its popularity even more. The contest also helped to create a sense of community among the people who lived near the bridge.
The kite flying contest is still held today, and it is one of the most popular events in Niagara Falls. The contest is held every year on the Fourth of July, and it attracts thousands of people from all over the world.
